I'm getting fundraising robocalls from Trump

[underpants]

I’ve gotten several this week. The person who previously had my office phone was hard Christian Right.

This is DONALD Trump just days after the election there was an orchestrated effort to anoint a winner.... corrupt ....fraudulent votes....I’m asking for your support.

Heavy dark voice - the radical liberal left ....blah blah blah.

1. I'm an easily identifiable Democrat

but I get 1-2 calls a day anyway. It's just blanket robocalls, last chance to cash in for the Trump gang. Lawsuits give them an excuse so expect them to continue regardless of merit.

2. There was an orchestrated effort to annoy the winner. n/t

3. That's an off the reservation scam

Short, quick disclaimer at the end says they are not affiliated with Trump.

5. I haven't made it that far.

Maybe I’ll stick through it the next time.

My office phone automatically forwards to my cell in case we completely shut down again.

9. There are at least three flavors of the orange anus robocall fundraising scams out there

It is my belief they are originating from India, but it's near impossible to confirm because the scammers have telephone number spoofing down to a science.

12. I just got another one

Swamp radical liberal Schumer

It was either donate - 3 or unsubscribe- 7. 7 was chosen.

13. I have one hard fast rule: NEVER press any option

First of all, unsubscribing does not unsubscribe you, plus if you press unsubscribe, you number will be harvested and sold to another scammer, with a tag, 'will respond'.

4. Got iMessages from Loeffler and Perdue begging for $$

This had been going for several days and i finally told them to stop it. I don't know how they got me on any contact list. I am vociferously anti-Rethug.

6. We've been getting emails for weeks from a couple of outfits trying to get cash for

Perdue and Leffler. I can't imagine how they identified us far lefties as targets. Even worse, when I block them they just send the next email under a slightly different name so it gets through. Annoying.

7. Keep them on the call as long as possible. If ask to Press 1 or 0, do so and place phone on mute.

.

The only way to stop them is to waste their time by engaging with a human on the other end.

Either make small talk or just do what I do, place the phone on speaker, put the phone on mute, press the button, and listen to the person say, "Hello, Hello, Hello?" This will take a few times, but eventually they'll get the hint and pull your number. My kids play music and talk in the background until they hang up. My youngest will ask them all kinds of questions and waste their time for minutes.

8. I hope they call back today then

I’m the only one at work and I just finished everything I have to do. I have a great Billy Crystal voice from “Running Scared” that I used to use on telemarketers.

10. It is funny in a sad way

Please give all of your money to the ex president.
Trump needs your help right now.
THEY are trying to steal from you.

11. I'm getting constant spam emails from Ossoff

It is getting annoying because I don't live in Georgia, and it is multiple emails. I think I got 3-4 today.
