(21,313 posts)That's my landline number!
You posted my landline number!
At least you didn't post the area code!!!
Seriously...
I got one today and they asked "Can you hear me"?
I responded "I can hear you" instead of "Yes".
Sometimes if I'm not busy, I'll play with these guys.
When they find out I'm messing with them, they tell me to do unspeakable things to the female members of my family!
The problem is...they spoof local numbers, and the local number they spoof the most is the number of the local hospital system, so sometimes I have to answer the call, thinking it is one of my doctors! It's so infuriating. They even spoofed my own phone number once on a spam call to my landline. I looked at the number, and it was like I was phoning myself. Another time, they spoofed my neighbor's number, and I thought "Why the hell is she calling me on the landline? She doesn't even know my landline number."
What really pisses me off is when I haven't slept at all the night before and i'm trying to catch a nap for 30 minutes or so, and the phone rings. No sleeping after that!
