I've been on this tangent before I'm sure. Phone calls and emails. We nearly never get legitimate phone calls here, only junk. We don't even bother to answer the phone unless we recognize the number. And even on my cell phone. The calls come from the local area code to tempt you to answer it. They now call that "spoofing." The call probably originates in India or Russia. But it looks like a local call, they can do that.
And emails. Most of them go to junk mail, but they are threatening. Like from Hotmail.com - YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CANCELLED.....but when you hover over the sender in the inbox it's from zfzfscdcef$%[email protected]. They call that "phishing."
I just don't understand it. Who in the world would do that? I can click on an email and delete it, but calling our phone is a bit more of a personal assault, in my lowly opinion. I just don't get it. What fun is that to be doing that to strangers?
