Odd for me to curse, but it was done :(

I try to be fair to everyone. I watch my words carefully and don't dramatize my life. To the point where I consider myself a die-hard introvert. I'm not overly loud, obnoxious, or an extreme, "expressionist" as I like to call it, whether it be a true term of words or not. Funny how I wasn't that way when I actually caught a man trying to scam me over the phone. It started a few days ago: I received a phone call from a New Jersey area code. I know NOBODY from New Jersey, so reluctantly, i answered it. After waiting a minute, listening to the background noise, a guy with an Indian accent finally answered. He said he was from the federal reserve and He knew my name.. Thinking it was important, I listened while he jumped straight into the questioning game and wanted me to answer Important questions. I started talking in Spanish and told him, "no habla". After he hung up, i checked out the number, and sure enough, It was a scam that has been reported several times. Apparently the guy on the other line will curse you out whether you are polite or not, when you tell him you're not interested. If you try to call back, the number doesn't work. This gets my goat more than anything. I reported this scam to higher authorities. I've spent a few hours locking down everything I needed. The government knows, the New Jersey mayor knows, and several others I can't name. Wouldn't you know it? He called today. I went up and down on this dude so bad, he couldn't respond. I ripped him apart. I know, I shouldn't have, but by the time I was done, this kid will never forget me. I feel bad now, but if you're that dumb to put the bullets in my hand, I'm gonna fire.

Lol, well done on shredding him up. I'm just surprised that he didn't hang up at all.

I caught him off guard. He tried to hang up, and also tried to swear back at me, but I was -100%...lol. He won't be calling back. Bad thing is, I told him I was the one that was shutting him down...waiting for the retribution

@quarternoes You're bad azz ;-) Excellent job, because you obviously got him there. Don't worry, wimps like that don't have the balls to do anything about it.

You did the right thing to report him, I also do the same when I receive scam calls. I know that they cannot get me, but they should get others.
