Speakout

Stop with the phone scams

I’m calling about these scam calls we’ve been getting. I’m elderly and I am very sick and I get 17 calls today that was one of those weird calls. Seven of them came from the same people wanting to change my insurance. I don’t give out information to anybody like that. But I want to know what we can do about it. Is there anything that can be done? Here I am laying up in bed sick and I can’t turn my phone off, my husband is in the nursing home, and I need to have my phone in order in case he would get sicker. I would appreciate it if there is anything that can be done that you could put it in Speakout because I’m getting so tired of this. It’s irritating, it’s terrible that you can’t lay down when you’re sick and get any rest. Thank you for your time.
