They are Coming for Me

Yes. My prince is also waiting for me there to become part of his harem. I can hardly wait.

@JohnRoberts What always surprises me is that Nigeria is a VERY POOR COUNTRY even if it is the richest country in Africa. The richest man there is Aliko Dangote, worth about $21 billion. But he is very much alive. I wonder how many people actually fall for this.

i can relate to that.

I get the car warranty calls. They are for cars we owned years ago or never owned. The IRS does not contact people by phone out of the blue.

@akalinus No they certainly do not.

@ScribbledAdNauseum You are right about that. If they were after you, you would know it.

I get IRS letters all the time in my email. Also, from the FBI, Homeland Security, President Trump, Mrs. Obama, the CIA, and so forth. They are all investigating me for something. I was getting fines imposed from violations in Minecraft which I never played. It is relentless.

If they saw where I live, they would say forget the whole thing. Thanks, I will remember your offer and you might hear me beating on your door at midnight sometime. Hide me!

@just4him Thank you. I can sleep behind the couch. When they come, just look around and say you don't see me.

@akalinus I will be happy to hide you.

I get tired of them and their scummy messages.

@akalinus yesss alot of scammers be careful brother

@didinedhia Yes, everyone should be careful. Do you have scammers in India?

@akalinus An amateur of music!

@topffer Yep, enough to last for life, must be.

Yeah, that would be bad. They charge a lot for those calls you make to claim your cash or pay your bill. Someone told me he was supposed to pay his taxes with $8,000 worth of iTune cards.

@akalinus One friend in particular seems to attract them like the plague! I think that she has finally clued in and can give as good as she gets!!

@Hate2Iron If you give these people the time of day, they put you on a list for the rest of them.

You are right about that. They are always working on new and better scams, too.

@BearArtistLady Are you in the snow belt? My kids are expecting feet of snow in upstate NY. I hate wind storms, what kind are you expecting?

@BearArtistLady When he picks a bed, he does not want it to shout at him.

@akalinus I don't blame him! I don't want my bed to shout at me either. Last night my roof over my bed boomed at me....we had thunder storms for a couple hours. I did finally managed to fall asleep. We had down pours for a few hours during the thunderstorms. Bill went up to feed the cats and they both were curled up in the shed next to each other enjoying the warmth from the other's body. I need to get the blanket up there for them to curl up in during the storms we're supposed to have for the next few days.

I hope you are safe and will continue on myLot.

@paigea You said if we don't hear from you again...

@akalinus

you are right...

@kayshope I checked my caller IDs and found that these calls are from Washington DC. I am tempted to mess with them the next time they call.

Yes, that is what I have heard also. Never talk to a stranger on the phone.

You should have said you were him. Are they really that stupid?

I get calls on message. They say they are from ??? and have information in our office and allegations on your SS# and blah-de-blah. They never really identify themselves or give the reason they are calling. They want you to call back. I won't.

@akalinus Apparently they think WE'RE stupid.

I think the authorities have better things to do.

@jvicentevalera Today, they found a girl who was missing for months. She was abducted by a guy who killed her parents. She escaped from a house where she was held against her will. They arrested the guy for murder.

@akalinus I guess so.

They caught you, huh? My son has been getting the same calls for 6 years that there are allegations against his name and social. I guess the sheriff has other things to do.

@fivecandles yes, you better watch out and hide if someone is looking at you. There is a suspicious guy doing laundry across the street. Maybe he is watching me for the IRS.

@akalinus busy sheriff running around all over the place catching us tax evading criminals!

These were phone calls. I get plenty of scams on email and Messenger.

I hope you called your bank and asked about whether it was really them. Do not answer bank questions on the phone. They just want your information.

I'm not worried, just mad that they are telling lies and some people might believe them and pay something to someone they don't know.

No, never. I got the same call three days in a row this week.

Sometimes I knock on wood too. I don't believe it, just something my mom did so I got in the habit.

Yes, they will do or say anything to get your credit card or bank information. I never buy anything from a stranger calling on the phone.

It was probably his phone number. What would you do with a phone number you bought?

@akalinus no, not a phone number, he was selling an iPhone. He sent some pictures, but I asked him to show me a picture with the phone and a paper with the current date written on it. He couldn't do that .
