    That is one regret that I have with having Call Guardian on my phone. I don't get any scammers on it. :sad:

    The members that have been on here a reasonable length of time know that I used to enjoy messing scammers around. Mrs Shiney and I used to type out some of the conversations I had with them and then posted them on GC. None of these were worked out beforehand but came in direct response to what they said. I think I only managed to keep two of them for longer than 30 minutes but most were between 10 and 20 minutes. :snorky:

      I get calls year round from scammers telling me that they, the tax people, will be coming for me if I do not immediately pay my tax owing. Their English is appalling and that is why I guess they keep calling people because they do nab immigrants for whom English is a second language. I feel sad for some of these victims but then again the evil side of Lori thinks, serves em right for not learning one of the two official languages... I shall send myself to my room for being a bad girl :whistle:
