Re: If I Get One More Phone Call

I keep getting emails about charges on my Amazon acct for a large purchase. I send to Amazon spoofing security.

I got one from MacAfee again a large. Called the number, no one answered.

I called MacAfee reg. phone and they told me I was lucky no one answered, it was not them.

Tonight, I got an email from Best Buy with a huge amount to contact them.  I just deleted it.

I always delete them, except for the above one MacAfee.  

Home phone I don't answer except when I was expecting a call from my Dr.  No one answered.  I think their recording didn't kick in right away before I hung up.

Re: If I Get One More Phone Call

I have a landline but I seldom answer it.

 

I constantly get sales pitches on it.  I just push block it.

 

Most of my friends also have landlines.

 

I guess there must be people who buy stuff on line because if it wasn't profitable...they wouldn't be doing it.

 

I've had this number for almost 50 years.  I just am not ready to give it up.

It's my home phone.


@rms1954 Shut off the ringer or turn it down so low it doesn't wake you.

If I do not recognize the phone no., I will pick up the phone and immediately hang up.  They get the message.

Re: If I Get One More Phone Call

I only answer contact numbers.  I am anxious about a hospital etc calling though about one of my kids.
