And even if it was true, just don't answer calls from phone numbers you don't recognize.

Then again, I just missed a call from the Sunshine Factory doing that. :(



AHHHH that's why you didn't answer.>:(

Thanks for the snopes link.

The email came from someone I know and sounded
believable so I did it.

But your reply made me wonder whether I had called
a fake number and given my number to some phone
spammer organization, so I went to the donotcall.gov
web site and checked to see whether I was registered
and I was, so at least I didn't pass on a fake number.

It's hard to keep up.
