They are "phishing", a response can cost you a major
ripoff.

I went in dry.:cool:
I DO get a lot of people that dialed the wrong number, both on landline and cell phone. My landline # is easy to dial in error when people are calling the local pharmacy. I've had fun with that one.
The spelling of my first name gives me a gigantic clue as to whether the person on the other end of the line knows me, or not. Mispronouncing my first name is a sure bet that they DON'T know me and are a salesperson, scammer, or general anus chapeau. That gets the "I don't know you, goodbye" response.
If they happen to actually get my name right and ask if it is me they are talking to, I answer, "Who do think would be answering the phone?".
For answering calls from numbers that you don't recognize the following responses can be fun:
Midnight Auto Parts, our deals are steals!
Clancy's pool hall, Clancy speaking.
Hello there!(Insert fake station here, like WZDY FM 83) You're on the air! What's your name and where are you from?!!!
FBI Interstate Fraud Unit. Officer Smudgins speaking. To whom may I direct your call?
If it's a recorded robocall, then you haven't given out any info and can listen for the opt out at the end. If it's a real person they are thrown off their memorized spiel and you can have some fun. Be creative and give 'em Hell! :tooth:

Mine will. When I went to Wisconsin for Christmas, they texted me to ask if I made a gas charge in Indiana. Which I did.
Yep, but you have to sign up for extra security alerts like emails and texts. Or the banks/credit card companies I use offer that option.

I know it is all fake; but, decorum is decorum

Not up to me if he stays or is :banned:
Not doing any real harm, but not necessarily any good coming from them either.

This went unappreciated. It shouldn't have.
I find it hard to believe scammers can exist in today's information age. I think they prey on old people and those who believe they've won a prize or that IRS or the FBI actually will call them with demands for money in lieu of going to jail...or so they claim.

"O poverty in wit, kingly-poor flout!"
I should stop caring.:tissue:
Man quit speaking that Shakespearean English and speak regular British which a a little easier to comprehend. You are dealing with regular Salt of the Earth 'Mericans, not Rhodes Scholars on here :tooth:

Pretty much the same for me. If I don't get twenty calls a week from "Lisa" (or Karen, Jennie, whatever) from "card member services", or "membership support" I start to get a little self conscious. Funny, the voice is nearly always the same, but the names, locations and sometimes businsses change. Some asshat gave my number out to one of the local dealerships a while back, and also to a couple of the timeshare places that leave a car/ boat/ truck/ atv in the malls....it took FOREVER to get them to quit calling.

When I told them 950,000, they were in disbelief and hung up shortly thereafter.
Gun control laws make about as much sense as taking ex-lax to cure a cough.
I agree. While most in here know that deputy dawg is just a goofball there may be some visitors who don't know this. He has alluded to engaging in vendettas and extreme retaliation for silly stuff. Perhaps the mods need to jerk a knot in his tail to let him know where the line has been drawn.
I will have to admit, though, that I've come to enjoy his posts just to see how silly they are. It's entertaining, but he needs to realize it's not just his reputation he's impacting.

Meh. The folks that believe will do so pretty much no matter what. They've made up their minds already and his words merely confirm their beliefs. Just ignore.

Relax. It's not serious. And no crime was indicated except in your imagination.
then lighten up
