Thread: Scam calls to your mobile. Or landline...

It must be the season - again - for the scammers to surface.

Today, it was an English,,, no, not a gentleman from the sub-continent, a real, pukka English accent. Oh alright, a whiff of 'Exeter' and tending towards 'better class of Londoner'.
This one referred to a mythical call from his company last year, by "Daniel Taylor"... and he was following up on that.
No, didn't let him get a word in edgewise, I talked over his feeble attempt to talk over me.... NO CHANCE !

Anyway, "Equity Research" from Zurich Switzerland will have to look elsewhere for a bunny to buy their Market Information.......

Yes, definately from the other side of the planet and came up on my phone as a +41 xx xxx x9 09
- Number now blocked, was sufficiently underwhelmed by them that I don't think they'll try again with a different number. (Has happened before...)

And my 80+ Father-In-Law was contacted by a scammer this morning, wanting to know if he was happy/not happy with the number of 'nuisance' or 'advertising' phone calls he was getting... Then, as a check that they had the correct recipient, wanted his credit card number...as a verification.!

Didn't work.

Maybe I should use their phone number and make it known /used / given to disreputable web-sites... that way it becomes sold and passed around and put onto lists of number for sale.... Lots of nuisance calls... A dose of their own medicine!
