Reasonably common I think. Sometimes if people don't get the desired reaction from you then they might come at you as another person. Sometimes as a different sex or age even.

@Wraithorn and to scam lonely people.
Wraithorn · 51-55, M
@cherokeepatti That too. There are a lot of predators out there.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Wraithorn yes and there are scam schools all over the globe teaching them how to do it.

@cherokeepatti Oh Jeez.....thanks for shattering the last bit of hope I had for Humanity.
Joking...sortof...:-)

@Wraithorn They had something on Saturday morning TV about it a month ago....scam schools. They use the internet and phone calling to do the bulk of it. I get calls every week from Indians pretending to work for Microsoft telling me I have a virus on my computer that they can remove if I give them a debit or credit card number, or that there is suspicious activity on my Social Security account, or that I have unpaid warrants and that I will be arrested if I don’t wire some money today to their account, etc.

@cherokeepatti I understand that. I don't even answer my phone if the call comes from a private or unknown no.

@Wraithorn I do if I am in the mood to deal with them. Take some of their time and make them think I have to turn my computer on, wait for it to warm up and tell them it’s running slow, etc. then say “Oh you said Microsoft, I have an Apple”...then the cursing starts, boy they can call names. And I have an air horn that I like to use sometimes too.

@cherokeepatti What do your birds think of the airhorn ? Must freak them out a bit.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Wraithorn They are either in a different room or out in the sun room when I use it, I wouldn’t use it near them. I can carry my phone outdoors and use it there too...

@cherokeepatti That's considerate of you Patti. I thought as much.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Wraithorn It makes my ears ring to use it.
