I knew the IRS call was a scam when the guy (who was Indian and could barely speak English) identified himself as “Special Agent Don Johnson”.

That and he was calling from a Fresno, California area code.

Ironically it is generally recent immigrants who fall for the scam.

When a scammer calls, start using “NSA Codewords” in your conversation.

Carnivore is supposed to pick those up....

He called me yesterday. His area code was DC. Warned me to not ignore this phone call “if you knew what was good for you”

With VOIP, the Area Code means nothing. If you think you are receiving a Local Call, you’re not. They can be anywhere.

Many use Throwaway Cell Phones. You can setup any Area Code you want on those Phones.

My Dad is in his 90’s and he gets bunches of calls. He finally wised up that these People are not his friends.
