I got a call from a 210 area code. Thinking it was someone I know in San Antonio, I answered.
It was a man claiming to be from customer service (didn’t say what company, only “customer service”)
The first thing he asked was “Can you hear me?”
I remembered something I read on Facebook saying people are calling and asking if you can hear them, then using the recording of your “Yes” reply as a way to sign you up for all kinds of stuff.
So I replied, “I hear you” to which he again asked, “so you can hear me?”
Me: I hear you
Him: I need a yes or no
Me: I hear you
Him: * hangs up*
Thanks to whoever posted that story. I probably would have answered yes the 1st time he asked.
