These jerks have been calling my wife's number for some time now, usually around dinner but just called again at 9:20 p.m. She yells at them but that only makes her feel good because these bozos don't give a rip. A machine calls you, if you talk, then it gets one of them on the line. if you pick up and don't say anything they will just hang up on you. The guy wanted to show me all the problems on my computer so I could see with my own eyes. Idiots!
Called this morning, no message on the machine. All day from early morning till late night, I get calls that I think have spoofed numbers showing, like "Newfame VT" "Washington DC" etc. Sometimes I pick them up and don't say anything and there's just blank space then it hangs up. Usually I don't answer, I don't know anyone in those places and figure they'll leave a message but they never do. It's annoying, and I've thought about changing my phone number but I've had it for almost 20 years and it would be a bother just because of annoying spoofed calls.. maybe they call to see if someone answers so they can know if it's a real number? I'm on the DO NOT CALL Reg. I used to report numbers but don't think it does any good and when they are spoofed they can't do anything anyway I *69 it and it says it can't give the last incomig call or "your call did not go through try again".
I received a call this morning and a man with a very heavy Indian accent said he was calling about my Windows internet service. I made him repeat it a couple of times, and then I hung up.
