I got a call from a collector one evening asking if I was ‘so and so’. I said what’s this about? He said it was about an unpaid AT&T bill...
I frigging blew up! I yelled “Nuh uh! I don’t owe AT&T squat!”
[There are three people with my name in Atlanta area: they are a couple of losers, apparently] He asked me for my SS number because he might have the wrong person. I frigging blew up again” “You mean you called to hassle someone and you’re not sure if you got the right person?” “And you want my SS number? Well F@ck You!”
“Well, gimme the last four” “Do you think I’m stupid? Don’t call me again! Or I’ll report you under the FCRA.
He finally asked me if I was born in 197X....I said no. He said I have the wrong person....Sorry..... “I said, you’d better be.”
Sounds like a scammer.
Good on you. It also helps not to answer calls from numbers that you don’t recognize
