Received call with my own name and number in caller ID!
- Liz| 12 repliesI received 30 calls from my own number on one day last week. They called the next day but only 3 times. I can't even block the number because it is my own.

- byronwI just got call with my own name and number. I must be getting old. I can't, for the life of me, remember why I called. :-)
- Kat replies to JoyceCTell your son if he starts getting irate messages like that again to change his voicemail to state his number has been spoofed and that unless they know him, he didn't call them.
- Kat replies to BigA| 10 repliesBecause then she can't call herself?
- BigA replies to Kat| 9 repliesOK, How many times in your life have you called yourself?
- Kat replies to BigA| 5 repliesI was being sarcastic. I can't see how I could call myself from the phone I was calling anyway. :-)
- MikeHuntleton replies to BigA| 2 repliesIn this day of people being born with a cell phone in hand, its not that far fetched to believe someone at some point in time was looking at themself in a mirror and thought how do I upgrade a selfie. Got it, I'll call myself while doing it!!
Theoretical Physicist, Genius and a Legend in his own mind.Quote:The first selfie ever to include a call to themself was by a lonely scammer in Pakistan, hovering over a small dirt hole, naked from the waist down and looking at a broken rear view mirror stuck in the curtain doorway from a recent car bomb.
Word spread among the call center's larger, crowded dirt hole during a lunch break, paving the way for scammers worldwide to make calls to people using their own number.

- MikeHuntleton replies to KatOh yeah, darn it...time has past for editing now.
- BigA replies to Kat| 4 repliesAnytime I want to talk to myself, I always know exactly where I am, what I am doing, and I am always within earshot of my voice. :)
- Kat replies to BigA| 3 repliesI say, if I'm talking to myself at least I know I'll get the answers I want. :-)
I once worked with a woman who not only talked to herself but ARGUED with herself. It was - odd. - Robert replies to Irritated| 1 replyTwo years for me and 575 blocked calls.
- Roe replies to Kat| 2 repliesYes, but at least she knew when she won the argument!! LOL.
