    This is exactly as it should be. I haven’t changed my greeting since I started at my current job so it still says the previous employees name lol. Plus I left my desk phone in my previous cube so I don’t actually have a phone at all.

      I mix it up, scammers have an automated system that goes “vwoop” when you say “hello” so I’ll answer as if I’m answering the phone from some fictional business of some sort.

      The scammer will hang up and then call again. wash rinse repeat a few times and then I don’t get any calls on my real phone number from scammers for awhile.

      You know they share information with each other on facebook and other services owned by facebook. So all their scammer groups stay open, but if you say that there were never any WMDs in iraq on facebook, or if you question any official narrative about anything at all on facebook, or do any real journalism through facebook, your entire account will be erased from it.

      meanwhile, scammers have hundreds if not thousands of groups on facebook that exist for the sole purpose of sharing victim’s information with each other for a profit and facebook does absolutely nothing at all to put a stop to that.
