Junk mail

Here are some insights from Jordan Harbinger regarding junk mail and related topics:

Evaluating Spam Calls

Jordan Harbinger discusses a clever trick to handle scam or spam phone calls. He recommends telling the caller that they have reached a government office. This often results in the caller hanging up immediately, especially if it’s an illegal call. Another method shared is using the three-tone "disconnected" sound in your voicemail to deter robocallers, as it tricks their automated systems into removing your number from their list 1.

Marketing and Phone Numbers

In a conversation with Brian Scudamore, Jordan talked about the persistence needed to secure a government phone number for his business. This can be seen as creative problem-solving similar to dealing with junk mail and spam. Scudamore's efforts involved multiple calls and leveraging connections to finally obtain the number from the Department of Transportation 2.

Battling Robocalls

Jordan discusses the FCC allowing carriers to ban robocalls, highlighting efforts to reduce unwanted calls. Despite this, companies can still make certain robocalls, such as for debt collection, but it aims to reduce spammy and scammy calls significantly 3.

Handling Incoming Assets

While this isn't directly about junk mail, Jordan Harbinger's conversation with Jonna Mendez touches upon evaluating unsolicited contacts, such as how intelligence agencies determine the legitimacy of incoming offers or information from new sources 4.

These insights offer a broader perspective on dealing with unsolicited and unwanted communications in various forms.
