Spam calls

[Marietta tony]

You probably got a call from me yesterday. Spammers got a hold of My google number and kept calling hundreds of numbers maybe thousands. I kept getting call backs from them, Finally around 2 o clock I changed my voicemail to if you are calling me back I got spammed and if you want my services leave a message. Got as couple this morning but it seems they moved on to another number.

Most understood and a couple were offended

I received a text today, pretending to be the MOTOR Vehicle, and with some unpaid fines... lol
The area code was from "Philippines" -

I could easily win the presidency with a two plank platform. Smart traffic lights and do away with spam phone calls.

I run a business, and cannot answer my phone....EVERYTHING has to go to VM...I have no idea how much business I miss because of it.....
If the # does not show in my contacts, it goes to VM.....10+ a day easy...

It pisses off the wife but I always tell them their mother must be so disappointed that they are a POS telemarketer.

and when the few say "no she's not" I say she must not have expected much from you. then I hang up

If I got time I’ll try and sell them something or tell them about the Lord! I get 8 or 10 a day!

Not been as much of a problem since we disconnected the land line.
Usually when I get a call on the cell from an unknown number, I answer with my best imitation of an Indian (Asian) accent..." hello, who is calling, please"... get a lot of hangups.
If they continue, I will keep them on the line as long as possible with stupid questions or responses 'til they realize they're being played, curse me, and hang up. How rude of them.

Most times, I just hang up on them, but every once in a while, I like to have fun with them. The ‘Final Expenses’ caller gets the message I do not need their services as I am not dead yet. They try to explain, but I insist I am alive They hang up. The folks that want to settle for an accident I was ‘in’ 2 years ago do not believe I did not survive the crash, thus I can not settle. I will ask the caller, which of the 35 computers in my facility did the caller determine I had an ‘infection’.

Most are robo calls, but one was a Medicare salesperson that said she understood my wife was about to turn 65. I said that was funny as she is about to turn 80.

I’ve been answering “Investigator Ford” in my cop voice. Nothing but hang ups.
