On another board a woman was warning us all about a phone scam that seems to be going around.
Phone scams have gone around since Alexander Graham Bell invented the phone.
The first phone call made was by Bell.
The second was made by a hooker peddling her wares.
The third phone call in history was made by some greasy thug trying to bilk either Bell or the hooker out of their hard earned money.
Anyway, the scam she got was that her grandson had been arrested and needed bail money and that the caller, a supposed bondsman would take care of it.
She wanted to know what to do.
Someone right off the bat had a very creative and innovative answer. You hang up the phone.
I told the woman that when I get a call like that I ask them, "How could that possibly be? My grandson is already doing hard time in prison for murdering a con man that tried to cheat his grandfather."
Needless to say, some idiot wanted details on the alleged murder.
"If I've told that boy once, I've told him a dozen times. If you don't want a body found you plant endangered plants on top of the grave so it's illegal to dig it up. Kids don't listen and now look where he is!"
