I picked up the phone, and a nice-sounding young man answered.
He asked me if he had gotten thru to (name of my hubby's business).
Instead of answering his question (I detected "scam"), I said this:
What company do you work for, young man? I'm doing some checking
now, to see if you are a SCAM, or if you are LEGITIMATE.
Guess what! He immediately hung up on me. Golly, I guess he WAS
AND IS a pure SCAM!!!
I get these calls constantly. I have allot of the numbers saved in my phone. When they call, I just answer the phone and dont say anything. They hang up after a few hello! hello! 's go unanswered.
Sometimes, I will say something broke up like hello....... can you hear me? hello hello. It is funny messing with them.
I do that often.
If they waste their time with me, thats less time to scam someone else.
I just received this call about 2 minutes ago.. they left a message which my voice mail identified as 'SURVEY'. The message the left said something about lowing interest rates... i don't have credit cards or a home in my name so yeah...straight up SCAM !!
