If this Bum calls again just star 68 the phone number to stop him from calling you on this number again.I hope this helps and makes this Bum look for a job instead of scamming.
Thanks for this site! We just got this number calling us too just a few minutes ago, and I went looking for something on the internet. They refused to give us their names, but claimed they were relatives from the suburbs. What was scary was that they knew our names. We tried calling bk the number, but it was not a working number! Any advice on what to do or how to get this reported?
This is a type of "grandparent scam" in a way.. only insert a relative, and substitute they conveniently have a accident or some such incident that requires money to be sent..

I rec''d a phone call and wanted to know how I was and stated I was his Uncle and he was from the Valley. Strange thing is that he asked for direction on how to get to San Antonio. He the called my wife and when she asked further questions he hang up on her. I am going to contact the San Antonio Police Dept to file a report.
