some automated piece of crap called me from an unavailable number today and the message was as follows

this is a us bank warning... your debit card has been locked because of an issue with your unemployment benefits. to speak to a customer service rep please press 1.

i called us bank and before i could say "automated piece of @#$%" i was told that this is a scam and thet they are aware of it.

if you know any gullible people may want to tell them.

Anyone get a call from 975-932-7364? Just got a call from a guy telling me the Federal government was going to give me a grant for 7,000 dollars. I would tell you his name, but I could not understand it. He said he worked for the United States grant department and that records show I was an outstanding citizen who pays his taxes and bills on time.

What a nice guy. I knew he was a scum artist , so before he asked me for money, credit card info or whatever, I told him I could not hear him. I then asked him to spell out loud and slow where he worked. He actually did it twice  before  hanging up.

United States Grant Department....I hope no one falls for this crap.

I actually had telemarketer swear at me once. He called my cell number and wanted me to take a survey. I went with my own questions on how he got my number etc... he yells at me with you will take my f'n survey. Nope and hung up. He did call back but I didn't bother answering the phone.

I have actually gone on a hunting trip with Bill Urseth; Trevor Gowdy; and Randy Travalia. Made good tv. When she was alive; my weim pissed on Kent Hrbek's cameraman's boot. Knew she was saving it for something. Clouds are for thinkers. Now is NOW! Been on an episode of Tony Dean Outdoors and have shook hands with Jason Mitchell. If you think going about daily business is daily business; good luck. In dirty river waters I prefer copper spinners with black beads trolled next to the weeds and shad. Otherwise; there ain't none.

One step at a time...Be careful.
