Need help with this really paranoid

So my Mom just answered a scam call and they asked to speak to me and they knew my name.

Have you ever had someone in your house receive a scam call and they ask for you?

There’s been so many data breaches.

It’s safe to assume that scammers know their targets very well now.

They use to call me all of the time, they know everything about me. I took over my grandma’s house and my grandpa had money, so for the longest time they kept calling for my grandpa, even after I said he’s dead. My new phone, I barely get scam calls anymore, it’s a Motorola. When I had an I phone I got scam calls constantly.

Yes, they usually know my name. Everything is available online these days. They even knew my apartment number which freaked me out. Luckily I didn’t give out any information so they couldn’t scam me. Fu-cking animals.

Don’t worry they most likely don’t know a whole lot about you. Things like names and addresses can be accessed on White Pages.

Just don’t answer any sketchy looking calls.
