Anyone who would know you are older and do this on purpose is one awful loser.

With caller ID and getting several scams day down here is sunny Florida. I don’t answer any phone calls I don’t recognize. If the want to talk to me they can leave message if I don’t know them. Same goes for emails. If I don’t know who sending them and not already put in junk. I delete them. Scammers think of new ways every day to try to get to you bank account, credit card, SSN, or any information you give them to try to steal you’re identity.
