Here's a good one, I just got a phone call. The electronic voice said, your Visa is suspected stolen because of abuse. If it hasn't been stolen we'll need 3 pieces of information to reactivate. They started with Your credit card # ...... hmmm I didn't let it go to much further. Oh yeah they called on my cell phone too. Funny I've never given that to my bank. Just thought ya'll might want to be careful.
Yep alot of that Shit going on now
We got the 2nd phone call today on are car warranty,and that phone # is 508-947-4418
We looked it up online and is marked THIS IS A SCAM
The first call I got on that was about 10pm and Chris was sleeping till she heard me saying a lot of 4 letter
words and she come running from the bedroom about the time I told this broken english speaking raghead if he
canceled my warranty I was gonna take what they owed me out of his hide
He hung up on me :shrug: go figure :roflmao:
Quoteshe heard me saying a lot of 4 letter
words and she come running from the bedroom
:roflmao: :roflmao:
She was mad and she was gonna wash your mouth out with soap wasn't she Bill? :sneer: :roflmao:
Yeah it's shame crap like that takes place. And it's even more of a shame that there is actually people unaware, and to gullible to recognize it as a scam.
About 16 or 17 years ago my phone would ring in my apartment. I would answer it & there would be a few seconds of silence so I would say hello a 2nd time. Kinda the way anybody would I thought. Then my phone bill came!! :argh: Holy shiite !!!!!! I had phone calls to England!! At the time I didn't know anybodys phone number from the next county!! I even had to pay them. I was told that by answering the phone I was accepting charges to be made to it by a 3rd party. So much for answering the phone when it rings. :rolleye:
Actually :confused: that was me Glen while on vacation over in Canterbury in 1993. I wanted to bring you back a Tshirt and I needed a size :shrug:
Yeah this phone crap is really gettin bad, and it pisses me off, a lot of em
are recordings so ya don't even get the chance to chew em out.
Or the ones that ya try and call back to chew out, and it tells ya something
like the number you're trying to call back doesn't exist :doh2: :argh:
and they start way too early in the mornin and go way too late at night. :mad2:
Get me goin on these mothers :argh: :laf:
:roflmao: :roflmao: You sound like me Scott.
Sometimes I try to call them back and jerk em threw the damn phone only to get a non existing number. :nono:
Up here our brilliant people came up with a no call registry in that if you called and said you didn't want these phone calls you registered and then if any of them phoned you, they were to be fined upto $15,000. Now they've broke into the registry and some people are having more problems than before. So now they not only have the phone numbers but the personal info as well. Good thing I'm the great procrastinator :laf:.
A guy called here from Buckmasters once and tried to sell me magazines........I talked about hunting.....no matter what he said...
He finally said .......sir, I am supposed to sell you this stuff......I said you do not like hunting? and just kept talking until he hung up.
:roflmao: :roflmao: I kept him on the phone for almost 40 min. and he could not get hardly a word in.... :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :biggrin:
:roflmao: :roflmao: I like that!
888-382-1222 This number is to block telemarketers on cell phones, and maybe land lines, for 5 years.
What I do when tellamarketers call is turn it into phone sex, ask them what they are wearing then tell them what im wearing ask them if they are laying in bed, they usally hang up after that.
I tell em I'm not interested in anything they have but I realize they have a job to do. Then I tell them we can either say goodbye now & hang up as friends or I can hang up on them & they can hate me forever. :biggrin:
