He(?) was legit, quite possibly - his system didn't use autocorrect?

Do ya figger?

I have gotten calls from " Donald J Trump". LOL

LOL How could you hate the "illegal scam" people? LOL Maybe one of the

only times in their lives that they were being honest. I had one a few weeks

ago that just said, "The Police". Whew....were they coming to arrest me? LOL

lol Uptown Gal.

The missus' first name is Karen, and I get calls from my own phone showing "Haren". I don't answer those.

Lol, Jim. The first time we received a call from our own phone number I did a double take. We no longer have that landline.

Also got a call later that day (yesterday) from telephone number: 000-000-0000. And today one that was nothing but a bunch of random letters in a row.

We often get calls from numbers that star with V. Our machine announces, so we usually pause to listen. When we hear V, we ignore it and carry on.

Even my cell number has been spoofed so it is not just land lines.

Yes, I will get phone calls from numbers that have the same three numbers as my cell. These three are also the same for my DD's and a friend. I guess they think I will answer it because it sort of looks familiar. Under these there is often a nearby town. Again they think I might think it is someone I might know.

Obviously for me though, if the contact NAME doesn't appear then I don't answer.

We also sometimes get international calls that we ignore. My husband puts his phone on Do Not Disturb because it was happening in the middle of the night.

I get calls that are from my area code but are otherwise unrecognizable to me. My area code is a new one that is an overlay, and so not that many people have it, and no one else I know does. I don't answer any of those calls. When I get out of state calls, I say to myself, "I don't know anyone in Massachusetts" and I do not answer. Often it is someone from my health provider who wants to ask me a bunch of questions or give me a survey. I do not call them back, but they are legit calls.

Last night the phone rang and our message machine has a lady robot that sounds out the caller ID so that you don't have to bother even looking at it. The phone number was xxxxxxxxxxny - you should have heard the robot lady trying to say that! LOL! Another one that we get a lot is "invalid number" only the robot lady pronounces it like it's "invalid" as in someone who is bedridden and recuperating from something.

I got the "Illegal scam" caller ID several years ago. When I told my son, he said "Best. Caller. ID. Ever! That must have been one really P*** off IT guy!".
