Got a call from 636-283-6920Didn't answer it. Knew it was likely a scam call. I generally play along with them, just to keep them busy and not messing with other people. Plus, it's fun to annoy the c**p out of them. I've gotten a few calls from m****s saying I owe the IRS 50,000 dollars, and the only way I can pay what I owe, is with a Walmart gift card. Oh, and it's generally a foreigner of some kind, with a TERRIBLE accent, telling me his name is Steve. HAHAHA! They can put a man on the moon, but they can't track down these worthless turds. Simply amazing.
