Telephone helps ward off suitors (Agencies) Updated: 2004-09-20 09:20
An ingenious telephone service helping women in Moscow get rid of undesired
suitors has become hugely popular.
"Hello. Welcome to the Moscow refusal service. The person who left you this
telephone number does not want to speak to you. Goodbye," is what an increasing
number of men are hearing when calling the number given to them by a Moscow
beauty.
The "service" receives an average of 20 calls a minute, says founder Pavel
Aladyshev, who works as a DJ in Moscow.
The 27-year-old says he recorded the message on the answering machine of an
unused mobile phone after his female friends regularly complained about being
harassed by zealous flirts into giving them a phone number.
The sucess of his "service," which now receives over 100,000 calls a month,
came as a total surprise to the young DJ.
