rvanparys Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 Received a call last night from a "good friend"... No name ... I said I didn't have any friends and hung up... Perfect English... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bournemouth Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 I have reached the point that I no longer answer the phone if I don't recognize the number. If someone really needs to be in touch, they will leave a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too.... except since I answer phone with "bueno", caller answered me in perfect Spanish and started with the same "don't you recognize my voice?" etc. stuff. Must be the season.........

gringal Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 I made a list of numbers of people I know and have been blocking everything else that comes in. Getting lots of one ring only calls now. Definite improvement.😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shortstop Posted April 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 I have one corded phone in the house with no caller ID so I tend to answer if I am in the same room, just in case. All others I do not answer if the number is not familiar. This was the first one of these scam calls for several months so yes, maybe tis the season.

Tiny Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 The land line phone I use has caller id with a directory. For the numbers I want to answer, I enter a name in the directory so the phone announces a name not a number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sacbe Posted April 12, 2019 Report Share Posted April 12, 2019 We just got a call from the same number: 998 395 7729, which actually is from Quintana Roo and not PV as our long lost "friend" had claimed. Wanted money sent via OXXO. We declined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
