[dragoneyes]

Scams are on the rise please let your elderly family members and friends know or a reminder about there intent they will say anything to scare them into giving them information or money. Happened to a family member on friday she almost gave in thank the lord she hung up. Happened to my wife 3month ago both were threatened with someone going to jail. Contacted state attorney fraud. FYI

I've got 2 calls on my cell phone in last few weeks that were recordings saying Something about IRS going to jail blah blah blah.

I get those IRS calls all the time. Actually enjoy them. I always call them back and tell them their building is surrounded and to come out with their hands in the air. Or ask them on dates and tell them I’d like to make sweet love to them.

The wife has been getting so many robo calls (some recordings, some were people) that she was actually getting pissed off. Most calls she would not answer but some she did. One call she answered she politely asked the person to take her off their call list, guy on the other end said he couldn't do that, so she lost her cool and started cussing at him. Guy actually called her a bitch and told her he was going to f her in the ass. So the next time that number came up, I answered the phone all I heard was "click". She went yesterday and bought an I-phone because the block/ignore feature is better on that then the old Samsung phone she had.

I scared if I call them back they'll hack my computers or phone somehow, but I wish it were a live person that called!!

Yup seems like it is out of control. I generally don't answer of they are not in my phone directory. But is sure a giant PAIN.

Its getting rampant, to say the least, at work i get the "please don't hang up, blah blah your business google account has expired..blah blah...the problem is, they screen their number with a local number so you can't tell who's acutally calling you, but if I get a whacked out number either at work or on my phone, that I don't recognize, I don't answer.
