So far this morning, we have received AT LEAST a half dozen calls from "Molly at Amazon" telling us there's been some Mickey Mouse charge (the amount of the charge varies with each call) made on our account and that, if it's not legit, we need to call Amazon @ ***-***-**** to have it removed, blah, blah, blah.
IT'S ALL B.S., of course.
I haven't bothered to CALL the number because I'd bet my last DIME the scam is they'll remove the charges for a 'restocking fee' of 'x' number of dollars or something similar.
'Anyone here work in comm tech who can suggest a way the PHONE COMPANY can head off these calls at THEIR END so we don't need to buy/set up/put up with a 'call blocker box' that tells callers to "press 9 (or whatever) if you're not a robot and you'll be put thru"???
Simply BLOCKING these calls is a waste of time because, as you all know, they just SWITCH NUMBERS/AREA CODES and keep calling.
I'm tired of this crap...
