Scam Likely

My I-phone rang yesterday; it was a number I did not know Next to it words read “Scam likely” how many people would race to answer this one? I rolled my eyes, glad for a modern day phone. In the olden days we would have salesmen all the time. Trying to sell us siding, cars, a new modern mop. I used to hand the phone to a toddler until they hung up. Made the toddler happy too.

I keep getting the same robocalls from Arizona at least twice a week! And at late night hours! Why can't phone companies stop these @#$% calls? Thanks for stopping by to read my humor. / Maurice

You are most welcome. You can block these calls. I do.
