Yes, me too. Soon after 9/11, I had a cretin call looking for money for first responders, claiming to be from the police. Didn't I want to help the brave men & women, played on my sympathy, & gratitude, etc. For various reasons, I could tell he was a con man. I kept him on the line & appeared to be a pigeon. When he finally realized he wasn't getting my credit card, he got quite colorful.
