Being home full time has been an interesting experience. But
this morning it has been rather unsettling.
We have Caller ID on our phone, and when I do not know who
is calling (either by recognizing the name, the number, or our one friend who
comes up as “Private Caller”) I do not answer. I figure that if the caller
really wants to reach me she or he will leave a message, and I can call back.
This morning there were two calls, about an hour apart, from
“Out of area.” Both times a recorded message was left claiming to be from the
US Treasury and “intending my serious attention.” Ignoring this would be a
second offense requiring a hearing before a magistrate or jury for a criminal
offense. I must “cooperate with” the caller in order to “help (them) help me.”
There must be a flood of such calls because I found the
following in one quick Google search:
Just thought I would pass this along.
May you and your money stay safely where it belongs!
Love,
Rebecca
