Just a vent....
Ugh.....what a pain. As you may know spammers use a local number for the caller ID in hopes that you pick up the call.
I recently found out they are using my cell phone number provided by my employer. The scam is for credit cards and as luck would have it I work for a financial institution. So, when people back the number....they are less than impressed as they think my employer that is repeatedly calling them!
I told my DH about it last night and coincidently he received a similar call on his personal cell yesterday from a person telling him to stop calling him. Same thing, credit cards - he ended up having the person call him at his place of employment to prove that he wasn't a scammer.
This is more aggravating than just getting the spam calls!
