Fisherman Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) Got a text this morning from 1-705-493-1735 indicating they were sending me money. Click on www.etransfer-interac.ml to receive your refund. .ml is Mali, somewhere out there in the jungle. Bunch of baboons thinking I pull my pants up with vice grips.

dave524 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I just get " Window's Technical Dept" saying there is a problem with my computer, some chick with important info about my present credit card balance ( never says which card ) and our daily air duct cleaning services with an AngloSaxon name and a heavy Punjabi accent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCranksalot Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Just watched a Marketplace episode about ducts etc and how "effective" the "Do Not Call List" is!!(Doesn't really qualify as news, though!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the episode, the do not call list is pretty much a waste of time. I'm sure the duct monkeys have us all on speed call via Pakistan or India. Every day it's a different number.

DanD Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Yeah I get those emails all the time. I also have a next door neighbour that is, well just say sketchy; with his conduct. The last email i got for duct cleaning, I replied but gave his address and sat back to watch the fun. A day or two later a truck shows up and pulls into his driveway. After a few minutes there's a bunch of yelling and he's (neighbour) is chasing the guy back to the truck. I have no idea what he was yelling; it was all in Lebanese. But I know for sure it wasn't inshallah (God willing) Unless he was asking god to help kill the poor sales man. LOL Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canadian "do not call" thing is a private endeavor, not a Gov. mandated thing like the US. It has been talked about here before. And they know that. I am constantly bombarded by someone with a thick accent that says his name is Bob telling me I have a problem with my computer. I tell him I don't own one, I have fun with these people. If you waste enough of their time they will put you on their "No call list." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
