They called early in AM and said they were from some children's cancer center. They asked for my husband by his first name. I said he was not available so she said she would talk to me. She asked if they could send me a donation envelope to fill and send back.
I immediately wondered how much personal ID info they had about us & where they got it! I asked her if she had our home address. She said "Yes". I asked her what the address is that they have. She said she doesn't have it in front of her & she is in training & would have to have me talk to her manager.
I asked her to repeat what cancer center she was from. Instead of answering, I heard a split second of shuffling & the phone immediately hung up!
I try to get more info out of callers as to who they are & where they are from instead of loosely giving out ANY of my personal info! If I do not have time to do that & report them, I just say that I am busy & hang up.
I get so many scam calls on my cell that I have created a new contact called “Scam Caller”.
Whenever a hang up or scam caller calls, I add them to the long contact list. When they call back, my caller ID shows them as “Scam Caller”. All I have to do is press “ignore this call”, and the cell phone does the rest without me having to deal with it.
