- First one was a "card accident" scammer. i told him my arms fell off, and when he asked for details, i told him I couldn't remember.
- Next one was a guy claiming to be Geek Squad, then later on claims to be PayPal, then later on Norton.
- Then we have a Medicare scammer trying to sign me up for food cards. I ask him what kind of food I can buy with the card, tell him all my favorite foods, and then I start ordering food and ask if he'll deliver it to me!
- ...and finally, the moment you've all been waiting for...
