So the chick staying with me says she got a phone call from someone saying they wanted to lower her interest rate on her credit card, just "verify the cc number for him". Hats off to her for not falling for the ruse. But then she says the guy calls back a few minutes later from the same number and tried selling her something...so she told him off.

Why don't I get this stuff? Phone calls...nigerian emails....nothing....

Well OP, you're an urban redneck.... Nobody believes that you have credit cards. But someone will be calling you shortly offering commemorative plates as investments...

Sorry, no offense, couldn't resist.

I used to hate getting the calls.



Now I enjoy messing with them if I have nothing better to do because after a few minutes with me they remove my number from the call list.



"This is microsoft and your computer is reporting a problem"  and "this is the IRS" are going on right now.



I always tell them to hang on a second, we are slaughtering a cow right now and the damn thing is bleeding all over the place.

I messed with the fake IRS people this week. They got so tired of me calling they would just hang up or not answer. There were a few funny moments when they try to cuss you out, lol.
