A Scam!

There is a phone scam in which you are ask "Can You Hear Me" when you answer "Yes" it signs you up for things you did not ask for!

...Never fails---Ten minutes after I send a Resume'....de damn phone is a ringin'---nothin' to do with what I applied fer...BOY, do I want to go NUTS on de person calling...but then realize they have to EAT, too.....screening the calls pretty much stops them in their Tracks, and don't Fall for the one that says, "...PRESS three if you DO NOT WANT these calls..."-----in Actuality, what you have Just Done is let them KNOW someone is HOME.....and doesn't stop 'em---just makes de calls even more persistent....If an employer is smart & realizes all de Junk calls we get---they will find a way to get in touch----Especially if you ask de God Family to have your Back....

I've heard of that one, William! It's pretty shady. I never answer unknown numbers, but I definitely recommend responding to "can you hear me" with "May I ask who's calling" or something other than the word yes!
