I never stopped receiving them. Sometimes when I’m feeling frisky I play with them and give them all false info.

MrCleveland, I on the other hand have been avoiding/ingoring scam calls on my IPhone during recent months and if i had a Scam Call Blocker App on my phone then it would been awesome.

Get an answering machine and let it go to that. It tends to discourage repeat callers.

I get scam callers a lot at my house, and we recently got one from Apple saying that the account had been locked and to call them in order to unlock it. My parents have also been getting these as well, and they even heard something on the news about this.
Have you tried looking into a do not call list or Nomorobo? |

I heard someone got busted for scam callers...and of course he's been linked to India! I hope these India Scam Callers who say they're from the IRS and Windows get busted more often...and I'd like to play this for them...

The Scammers Are Back Again!
These *******s from India are TOO Stubborn to know that I'm NOT interested in anything they sell!
They're trying to sell me pain relief...and one called me a racist...I wanna try to like every culture, religion, preference, etc. But the same person who gives me a fake name and a fake number keeps calling me...I even have my name on the "Do Not Call" registry...but these Indian ****s are VERY Stubborn! I'm sorry...I had to vent... ![]() ![]()

I’ve been tempted to do that and have seen YT videos of people playing with these scammers. But I just let the answering machine do the work, and giggle when a phony voice in broken English tells me Apple is coming to arrest me LOL.

One time, I got this email scam from Apple saying that I purchased a premium subscription to Spotify when it really wasn’t purchased.
