100% retarded call.
all Day long
This was a call from an employee of "Merchants," the company that handles fraudulent charges for my credit union debit card. I determined that the call back number he gave was legit, after calling my credit union. There was in fact a problematic charge on my card. So, this call was not spam or phishing but legitimate.
Scarily enough, I've gotten so many calls from this number in the past that I recognized it even though I hadn't gotten one from this number in eight or nine months (but more than a dozed overall...).
Blocked ????
Id thief and stalker
This was a callback from a phone call i made 36 hours earlier, from WHEAP (Wisconsin energy assistance).
Texted with my first name posing as someone I know. Trying to get me to confirm it’s my number but conveniently “they can’t talk right now” they say in the text.
He's just a jerk who does nothing but take advantage of women. "Borrows" money he has no intention of repaying, says he's used money he borrowed to buy drugs to resell in order to make a quick profit so he can repay what you loaned and more (which he doesn't do, so who knows if his claim about buying drugs to resell is true, or said because he incorrectly thinks that will impress you), etc. He is an alcoholic who drinks at least a fifth per day, but usually more. I've seen him go through a GALLON of vodka in just 3 days! He occasionally does drugs (claims to have tried everything there is, and probably has). He regularly gets in physical fights while drunk, which is why he has missing teeth and the teeth he still has are all over the place instead of where they should be. Thinks he's God's gift to women and claims he's great in bed, so he thinks all women want to have sex with him - even though he's always drunk, missing teeth, and can't hold down a job (because he's always drunk or hung over, has no driver's license after numerous DUIs, gets in physical fights with coworkers and bosses, etc.). He also has at least 2 kids with 2 different women, but he obviously can't pay child support when he can't keep a job and spends any cash he gets on alcohol, tattoos, or drugs. He also had to live with his grandmother because he couldn't keep a job, and now that his grandmother has died, he is either homeless, living with his mother, or freeloading off whatever woman is foolish enough to agree to have sex with him. I was never interested in being anything more than friends, which he didn't believe and wouldn't accept. So one night he tried to force himself on me! I got away without anything happening, but just barely. Obviously, I cut off all contact afterward. He has a loooooong criminal record and multiple women have restraining orders against him - check these records online at the website for Madison County, IL Courthouse before you consider getting involved with this loser!
