I don't get many anymore but one keeps popping every so often.
They tell me that my credit card has been charged $299 for online service but if I wish to cancel the service just call back and have my credit card number ready so that they can check to see if the charge was in error. Ya' Right !
I'm sure they've caught a few people on that one.
One I used to get but haven't gotten it in quite a while is one where they're going to arrest me if I don't pay money to get the charges dropped.....

Anybody else gets this one?
About once a week I get a call that turns out to be a robocall, in Chinese! I don't know what the hell they are trying to sell me as I don't speak Chinese. I can't block them as they keep using a different spoofed phone number and Caller ID.

We were getting those about a year ago and then they just stopped .

I keep getting calls about lowering the interest rates on credit cards i don;t have or items ready to be sent that I haven't ordered. About large amounts added to my Amazon account that would be impossible since I don't use credit cards. Lately I have been getting more e-mails than I want, over 60 the other day. This is more of a problem because my Outlook keeps starting over again and it takes several tries to open one.

Now it just got serious. Got the call telling me my Apple computer has been hacked, compromised, and important info has been taken. I don't know what to do! I need all your help! Could someone please tell me where my Apple computer is. Better yet, can someone please tell me when I even bought one. I think gettin old is killing me.

Spam texts are also becoming a problem, I get 6 to 7 a day, is there any way to block them ?

I have gotten a few recently myself.
I was wondering how to block them as well. I know how to do it with cell calls, but only am able to delete the texts w/o opening anything in them!

I have had two or three e-mails saying that my computer has been hacked and wanting me to send money to their account. I have just ignored them and marked them as junk.

I got one today "from Social Security Department" with low quality recording and bad grammar throughout. I pressed "1" and you can guess where the operator was from.

3rd or 4th text in a few days saying my Roundup settlement is ready for me to collect. Don't use much Roundup, little gas works just as well and is cheaper
