Good points. Thank you!

I am still receiving several scam telephone calls a day on my land lines, some of which are from area codes I have never seen before or used, as well as several familiar area codes. The Chinese scammers still leave voice mails, ironically on both my land lines which are in two different states. They have my "numbers" I guess...
