and the scams go on...

Published Sep. 12, 2008

 I just received what sounded like a robot call from telephone number 886-599-5630.  The call claimed to have come from NC SECU, checking on recent activity charged against my Visa card.  The caller - who really did sound like a recorded message - wanted the last four digits of my social security number and my birthdate.

I put the call on hold, and contacted SECU.  Of course the call was NOT coming from them.

I guess these idiots don't EVER give up.  Be careful out there, folks.

You have a distinctive and enviable talent for picture selection, my friend! :)

Hey! That's my Saturday morning pic you got up there! ggrrr

Possible, but I didn't get it from you. Not that I wouldn't have - it's a dynamite shot - but I'm on my work computer and I didn't work on Saturday to pull it down on my hard drive.

I can remove it though, if it bothers you. I didn't mean to steal. I just wanted something that fit my mood.

Me too hix...*sigh*

I just clicked on one to win a $102.50 worth of free gas and was told I was an idiot{;o)

15 mins to go...think I'll sleep it off.

That's how I feel now.
