Scam Me. Spam Me.

  • サマリー

  • I get calls from spammers and scammers (just like everyone else), but (unlike most) I answer them and talk for as long as I can. I figure if they're busy trying to dupe me they're not duping somebody else. I also find the practice despicable so wasting their time gives me some personal satisfaction.

    I get more calls from people I don't know than from those that I do, granted I have fewer friends than I do opposable thumbs, but still, it's annoying when it's just spam calls, and angrying when it's a scammer - not because they could scam me, but because they are succeeding with other people, usually elderly people, whom hold a special place in my heart.

    We all get those calls from numbers that we shouldn't get calls from; usually they're trying to sign me up for a credit card or loan, other times they tell me there's an IRS issue or that I have a computer virus.
    Microsoft, Google, Dell, HP, Apple... whoever - they don't call individuals about viruses. Don't let these people on to your computer. If someone with the FBI, IRS, or other government agency calls you should call that agency's main number and verify them.

    So, stop it, don't just stop calling me, stop trying to swindle anyone. Until then, I'll answer the call... and record it, and broadcast it!

  • Apple Didn't Call Me

    Apple Didn't Call Me
    2020/06/14
    I don't own an iPhone, but apparently somebody from Apple wants me to call them back on not an Apple phone line to get support for the devices that they don't want me to use until I talk to them.
