It is getting way out of hand. The phone keeps going off every 10 minutes or so and quite often, it is the same number calling. A number I don’t recognize. I spent most of the day at home yesterday and I got almost a dozen calls from unknown numbers.
I looked up most of the numbers and also the area codes, some were definitely from scammers. There were warnings out on this kind of aggressive calls. The problem is, the phone rings and when I pick it up, they hang up. Or they come up with some badly devised scheme about the “electricity” bill or something else. Nothing that makes sense. I want to know why they keep calling and when I pick up, they hang up. Doesn’t make sense either.
The aggressiveness comes from the number of calls they are fielding. Sometimes as many as 10 calls per day. Frustrating? Definitely! I was told that I could change my number but that is more than frustrating because I would have to inform friends and people close to me about the change. How they have my number is confusing as well. I am careful about who I give my number to so it seems like they are using some other method to get a hold of the numbers.
It seems that scammers have found a lucrative way of making money without doing any work other than to make you part with your hard-earned money. SCAMMERS get a job and earn money the old-fashioned way like most people do.
My plan is to take down the numbers, the ones that call here consistently and persistently and to hand over to someone to do the job of bringing them down. I hope it works but I’m sure more will crop up. Scammers, it seems, are here to stay simply because people fall prey to their dubious schemes and because they are learning there is another way of making money, one that does not involve going to WORK!
