I do, but it doesn't seem to work well through the piece of tape I keep over it...

My life is a shambles . . .

I've been extorted by that kind of email twice,
All my extended warranties are expiring,
The IRS has a warrant for my arrest,
The FBI is also after me,
I owe social security money,
Microsoft is canceling my software licenses,
My doctor has recommended several devices to assist my disabilities,
Amazon wants me to authorize a $499 purchase I can't recall, (after last months $399)
and Apple wants me to change my password.

I still get those three phone message/scams on my recorder. :)

The last one was the Amazon scam, but with a twist. The phone number to call for assistance was recorded in this format: "Please call Nineteen billion, one hundred five million, five hundred fifty one thousand, two hundred and twelve for assistance"... :eek: What??? Never in all my years has anyone even given a phone number in that fashion... :rolleyes:

The diction and accent were Yankee-perfect. Only one hint that it might not be a native 'Merican speaker... :p

I am in worse trouble than all of that! The IRS and Boarder Patrol are holding a "suspicious" package addressed to me. What could it possibly be and should I even ask? I think I will roll the dice and hope it is returned to sender.


As an aside I got another pet peeve. I no sooner than buy something from some company or contact someone about something and they feel free to bombard me with "promotion" emails by the dozens every day. "Gunbroker" is guilty as are many others. Give it a break people! I bought something so now I am live bait?

The IRS or the SSI will NEVER ask you for your Social Security Number~My granny fell for the scam!! She had to change all of her accounts!

OMG ! I'm finally a winner !
 
Yay!!! I just got a call from Publisher's Clearing House; I'm a winner!!! The call said after years of submitting entries I've finally been selected to receive the prize! All I have to do is push 1 to be connected to Mr XXX XXXXX of the prize department to finalize arrangements for my prize! :thumbup:

Oh, this is wonderful! My medical bills are piling up, my car needs a new exhaust, the Corvette won't start, my lawn needs mowing, Bank America has a hold on my credit card, my newly-installed Leaf Filter is clogged, there's a bee nest under my back doorway and they've nailed me several times. Women don't want to be with me, men don't want to be me...My life has been a disaster... :crying:

But now that's all in the past! I'm rich!!! I'll buy a new home, bulldoze this one, donate a couple hundred to hurricane relief and just spend the rest foolishly!!! :D

What a great day! And not even my birthday yet! :p

But I do have to wonder how they found me...I've never filled out a PCH entry in my life... :confused:
