Yet another call supposedly from the BT tech dept saying my internet connection has been compromised . Only thing is I’m not with BT. These people are ■■■■ and should be given lengthy prison sentences/very heavy fines to deter them .

I’m totally game with their game a lot of times
I think their easiest victims are the disabled and elderly.
I need Phil many times.

They used to pretend they were from Medicare and ask for your Medicare number which Is also your social security number. Then they’d steal your identity. Now Medicare has changed the numbers

Yes, here too. They rent phone numbers from foreign countries and they call you. If you answer or call back your bill will be enough big. Very sad. No one can do a thing

One time a guy pretending be from the IRS was threatening me and my mom. I picked up the phone, but knew the IRS can’t start taking your stuff until they get a paper notice to you in the mail.
So I yelled “NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION”

I once got a call saying congratulations “insert male name” you just won xyz! Then I was like that’s not my name. Then they continued to try to sell me on their bs scam telling me I had really won after all. Sad

the only time ever was a vacation down to Branson, Missouri.
They gave me good package, and I had to do their ads seminar while there,
but got out of it because I had a disabled son.
