Then politely gave each of them a paper with their social security numbers, and credit card numbers. They were shocked, their voices carried so far, and clearly that anyone could have written down their personal info during phone calls, they made in their lanai.

Fair warning, be careful while outside when giving out your info during a phone call, someone may not be so honest.
Priceless! And effective!
