Verizon just informed me of this fantastic new service they want to sell me where I can create my own caller id signature for my phone calls. They specifically state they aren't editing/approving them, so I can be "Princess Di" or "Donald Trump" if I want.
Now I know why all my spam calls the last few days have been from people with full caller ID signatures that make it look like they are in my contacts already. These are the people in charge of protecting your private information at Yahoo.
- Nition 9y agoIn that case I'd suggest "Mom" or "Dad" for maximum effectiveness. Oooh or maybe "YOU HAVE WON".
- jacquesm 9y ago911 as the originator should have a pretty good pick-up rate. Nobody ever got called by them and yet I'd bet that it would work just fine.
- Nition 9y agoThis is the kind of thing where we start coming up with these ideas that might actually work, but then some Chinese bot calls you with the ID MOM 911 YOU HAVE WON EMERGENCY.
- michaelbuckbee 9y agoHere in the US we do have "Reverse 911" (though I forget what number it calls from). I live in Virginia, but was in Louisiana and I got a call about a hostage situation with a shooter that was happening somewhat near my home address.
- Waterluvian 9y agoWhat did they want? Just for you to stay inside?
- michaelbuckbee 9y agoYes. "If you are in the area, please leave. If you are inside your home, please remain."
