It's important that those of us who have elderly loved ones warn them about these scams.  I have an elderly aunt who used to be rather sharp about these things, but I think her mental faculties are declining.  Since her husband passed away and she has no children, I've taken it upon myself to warn her  about every scam I hear about. 

   I did that too @Applewood, for the last couple of years of my company (retired 10/16) I came to the conclusion that are some people, no matter how well off or intelligent, think the 'Circus is in town' all the time.   How they got this far in life with that amount of naiveté is beyond my comprehension.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

They are thieves. It's about the only thing I think the Muslims have right, their treatment of a thief. 'nuff said.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Of course they're cruel and evil.  They're criminals, bunko artists.  It's what they do.

Somehow that sort of activity is on the wane WRT my phones. It seems they don't much care for my practice of just laying the phone down and seeing how long it takes for the other end to realize there is nobody listening.

"Look. We all know you've run out of people to nominate with everyone leaving. But do you really need the position badly enough to call ME?!

But yes, I'll take it. And if the haters hate it, well, screw'em."

If you will pick it back up every few minutes, and say:  "hold on, I'm almost done", you can stretch that out for a while.
