Just got off the phone with the latest...
Phone rings, I quietly say "Hello?"
Background noise, Hindi accent..."Hello, sir, dis is Michael with (scam operation) and we-"
"Michael? Mikey? Mikey, is that you?"
"Yes sir, my name is Michael..."
"Mikey, can you come over? I need you...I've...I've fallen and...please come help, Mikey..."
"Sir, I cannot come over, I am calling because..."
"Why won't you help, Mikey? I've fallen and...I need your help, Mikey, I can't stop the bleeding..."
"Sir, I cannot come over, you need to call 911..."
"Mikey? Why won't you help? Your mother needs you too..."

I presume you block the number after you hang up?
Doesn't mean it's not from the same boiler room, just different extension, now that they know a real person answers the phone.I never get a call from the same spoofed number twice.

100% true, but by answering the phone, it tells them someone will answer.It's at least three distinct ones. I'm starting to recognize them. But blocking the spoofed number doesn't keep the dipshits from calling back, just from using that same number to fool caller ID.
