WTF is that?

It keeps hitting my phone.

Anybody know for sure?

I dial it back and get the recording it is non-extant.

WTF?

It's just the NSA playing around.

Google the number. A lot of others are getting it, too.

From 800 notes:

It's a scam.

This is a scam!! I got a call 3 times today. I questioned the representative who's name was "Michael" who was Indian stated to me that the govt was going to give me 7k just because. I said if you're from the govt why do you need my banking info and social security number. He became frustrated and hung up. This is an over seas hustle so if they call you, let them know Uncle Sam has your Info and if they want to give you 7k for no reason, throw it in the mail.

In the "olden days" BR shooters shot the 22-35, 22-45, and 23-45. Different versions of the 222, 222 mag, and 223. Kinda ackley versions.

I reckon the only question that remains (oh my God. I have to pause because here they call again...)

Anyway...
I'm back.

How does a guy 222, 22 twain, these stupid futher mockers?
...
and be rid of them.

And furthermore, why do I feel like I'm 12 years old and watching a "murder by death"?

So make up a false bank number, and give them a false name. Do whatever you can to take up as much of their time as possible; they'll remove you from their call list.

See?

22 Twain is an address.

Go watch that movie again.
My kids laugh their asses off.

"Here comes the cho cho train, dad."

313 570 3344

These phags won't answer back, too.

WTF is all this horseshhit?

the caller was a stutterer

I've been getting the calls from a fellow with an foreign accent, saying he is calling from Windows and there is something wrong with my computer.

Told him the first time my computer was broke, and he hung up.

All the rest of the times, I just hang up on them.

313 is a Detroit/Southeast Michigan area code.

Muslim/Middle Eastern scam.

Eight-six-seven-five-three-oh-niee-iayn...

Very rarely I will get a call on my cell that I don't recognize.. I never answer nor never, EVER call it back.. If it's someone who needs to get hold of me they'll leave a message..

No message - no callback..

It seems to me I remember one of our members leading on one of these scams to point it was hilarious. He told the scammer he'd release his account info if the scammer would send him a picture of himself with a milk bottle on his head or some foolish thing like that. The picture of the dufus hamming for the camera and thinking the money was on it's way was priceless.

Had one that was calling here regular , then they called one too many times & caught me in the wrong mood for that schit. I asked her how she would like to suck my dik , haven't had a call from that one since.

Caller ID spoofing phone apps.

Scammers can now spoof existing legitimate phone numbers of individuals or businesses causing them to show up on caller ID display, or inactive numbers, or make up totally bogus numbers from non-existent area codes.

Last scam on my cell, was something that turned out to an area code from Jamaica...

I asked why the guy was calling me from Jamaica, if he was representing something state side....

then he tried to claim it was not the island of Jamaica, but he was calling from Jamaica NY....

these idiots don't even lie very well...

I responded with one of my often used responses...

" the only thing people hate worse that a liar or a thief, is one that is not very good at either..."

Well at least there are two of us just don't answer. You want me, leave a message. Unless I know the number.
