So they aren't smart enough to know about time zones. How the heck do they expect someone to react to a 6AM call. Being on the east coast I've only had that happen a couple of times over the years. No idea who was actually calling as I wasn't about to get out of bed to pick up the phone. If it was important they would call back, they did not. >3/4 of the scam calls I get are from a phony charity named the feed >foundation. > >This one was from a scam that was running real heavy last month, but I >hadn’t heard from the last couple weeks, where somebody who doesn’t speak >understandable English Calls and asks if it’s correct if you were in a car >accident in the last two years The one that I always got for years almost every day was collecting money supposedly for the police. The phone calls always had the same guy reading the script but the phone number changed every time. That's always a big red flag if they can't use the same number.
