Not Fun Anymore

Just got a call to my fixed line at home. The other end was a computerized female voice speaking in chinese. It says that I’m required to attend a court hearing on some date(i forgot wtf she said) and after the message’s been played, it’ll keep on dogging me to press number 9. After awhile the messages would be replayed.

Like, yeah, Malaysian court council(whatever shit it’s called) gonna call you, without addressing you in your name, speaking in Chinese(computerized samo) and asking you to press the number 9. How bloody stupid is that?

I would’ve expected a court letter.

Pity, it was a recorded message. Otherwise it would’ve granted me the satisfaction of yelling at the idiot. Bloody fuckface.

*update*

oooh, another fuckface called at 3.30pm just now. Now it’s a company from Hong Kong doing its year end lucky draw. This time it’s a human on the other end. So I asked where did she get my number from. Computer generated it seems…

But I’m pretty sure some company somewhere leaked our number to these scammers, for a price. Bitches.

This is not the first time we got calls like these.  The most convincing one was some man calling my dad, saying he found my brother lying in a pool of blood somewhere after an accident. If not for my brother being being right beside him at that time, fixing his car, I think it would be quite possible for my dad to panic and fall for the scam. Yeah, and luckily my dad has only one son.

Just don’t give out your numbers easily. There are stupid scammers from China looking for preys.

But I wonder how many DID fall for their tricks for them to be able to keep it up for so long.
