Receiving phone calls supposedly from Social Security about an enforcement action being placed against my Social Security. They then give a phone number to call to resolve the problem. IMHO, it is a scam as Social Security never initiates contact via telephone!! Watch out!!!!!!

Please don't tell me you LISTEN to those phone calls. ???? As soon as I realize it's a robo call or a sales call, I simply hang up. Surely seniors are not as stupid as the callers think. (oooops , yes, some of them are) and some old folks are so lonely, they will listen to anything. I feel sorry for them. If social security calls you, HANG UP.

BUILD THAT WALL

I used to get sales calls all the time.
I played them.
I often asked to talk to their supervisors then had very long periods of quiet while I had music or a movie playing in the back ground.
Every once in awhile I would say yes or ughuh and nothing else.

I stopped getting those calls.
I guess I am on a 'no contact' list now.
Hahaha, it worked...
