Decluttering the Stuff for a Decluttered Life in Retirement

Phone scams!

Published on

in

We just received our third call of the afternoon claiming to be from Windows Technical Department.

I know they are:

  • calling from outside the United States so they don’t have to follow the Do-Not-Call legalities
  • using phone numbers that are not from their “call center”
  • SCAM ARTISTS hoping someone is stupid enough to give them the information they are trying to get

Thankfully, we receive very few of these type of calls – maybe 2-3 per week. ย It’s weird that they called 3 times this afternoon. ย Also thankful the other 2 phone calls we received this afternoon were from kiddo #1 and kiddo #2.
