loosing the use of your landline
« on: 13:11:15, 14/03/16 »
Just read the back posts on hacking. Although your PC may be safe, scammers seem to get your phone number easily.
Having to fill in ,as compulsory in a form, seems to me to be a way in, so don,t do it if possible.
I get regular calls purporting to be from Microsoft/Windows.
Microsoft say ,report unsolicited calls to your provider and if money is involved, call the police.
There are some who will never answer the phone, due to this.
Politicians and nappies must be changed often,and for the same reason

Another reason to not answer the phone is PPI calls, and they keep changing their numbers
All that's necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing
