I get 2 or 3 calls telling me to call a certain number to arrange to pick up my student loan check. I like money as well as anyone but I've never been tempted to all that number.
Never under estimate the people out there with absolutely NO COMMON SENSE!!!! And this impacts all age groups and no matter what level of education---they could have a PHD but no common sense---
I mean why would the IRS want someone to send in their past due tax in the form of ITune cards or Gift cards....yet according to the FTC thousands have fallen for this scam.....
Or they are just plain stupid---- in these schemes pay a lawyer fee of $1000 because they got stuck in Nigeria with an invalid passport they want return to the U.S but have to pay the fine first .....and they promise to split a million dollar inheritance with you........Yah right and it will snow in August in Texas if you believe that one........
And the one I got from a "PASTOR" in Alabama that accidently received a Western Union money gift of $500 meant for me....and all I would have to do is to send a $148 processing fee to get it re-directed to me and deposited to my bank account....ROFL!!!
It really is unfortunate that everyone is not as smart as you two!

The other day I got a 'scam' thingy on my computer, which is a Chromebook and uses the Google OS. The message was from 'Windows" Microsoft, saying I had a virus on my computer. I'm curious as to how this kind of message comes up on a Chromebook? I was able to get rid of the message and my chromebook seems fine now.

It's only 1PM in California - and I've already had 4 SCAM calls. Once in a while I pick up - and they're robo-callers. I let many go to voicemail. If there's a real person on the line, I call them a few names I can't repeat on here.
