I remember a funny story from several years back. It is interesting how the Indian VM's try to pass themselves off as Americans with American names. However, the minute you hear the thick indian accent and poor English grammar...you know exactly what you are dealing with.

Several years ago I happended to be doing a title search in Stonington, Ct. One of the other abstractors mentioned that he had been contacted by someone with an indian accent purporting to be American. He was immediately suspicious, and asked her where she was located. She responded by saying Kansas City. He started to ask her several generic questions that any American citizens would have known. He asked her if she was a hockey fan. She said  "Oh yes, i am a big fan of hockey". He asked her if she followed the Kansas City Rangers. She responded by saying she was one of their biggest fans. He said 'that's odd because the team is located in New York." At that point she had to admit that she was located in India. However, even being caught in a scenario like this does not seem to phase them. They still want to talk about business.

On another occasion I was at a closing last year in which the borrower complained that she was continually bothered by Indian telemarketers. On on occasion she tried to explain that she was on a federal no call list. That did not seem to register with the Indian on the other end of the conversation. She finally asked him not to call again. He became irate and told her that he ..." would call again and again and again." Wonder if this approach is in their sales training manual. If nothing else you have to give them credit for being annoyingly persistent.
