I guess I will soon be trying to post here from jail and have no money for bail as the IRS has arrest warrants for felonies out on me and my SS # has been suspended. 6 of those stupid calls yesterday. All from India, I believe, as one caller spoke to me in Hindi, quickly caught themselves and switched to English. They even leave voice mails, so not answering doesn’t seem to be a deterrent. I found blocking numbers to be futile because they use the number for a day and then switch to another. That ”chipmunk” voice telling me my call is very important is a dead giveaway. Several different kinds of scam calls use that same recording.

 

I will go for a week or two with no scam calls followed by a week with 20 of them. Scum scammers.
