Stay Home Stay Safe

[Peanut]

I screen all my calls at home, a land line. I got a call this morning that was really strange. I was cleaning in the kitchen when the call came in. At first I thought it was a telemarketer but I could only hear bits and pieces but it caught my attention.

The message the robo caller machine left was "This is just a test call" "Time to stay home" "Stay safe and stay home." Then it ended.

I checked the phone number in my caller id... It was prefix correct for the city name. Telemarketers spoof the numbers and cities so I'm unsure exactly what this call was. Seems if were a government agency the name would have been in the caller id..

Anyway, just curious if anyone else has gotten this call?

No. But it's reminding me of all the signs in the movie, "They Live". Remember that? Just put your special glasses on and you'll see the craziness.

I heard a news report... maybe in CA that spoke of a large scale phone message about the KungFlu.

I was working at the time so take this with a grain of salt.

...I'm still on hold waiting for: "Important information for the vehicle owner".
It said don't hang up

A call like that would send my tin foil hat airborn for sure..

LOL," oh ok I was going to hang up good thing you told me not to."

But your car warranty is going to expire!
Yesterday I got a call about my diabetic supplies that were being shipped to me.
I'm not diabetic.

I'm not diabetic.

Maybe they know something you don’t...

I've replayed this message a half dozen times or so... It's just bizarre! There is no intro or any thing but the words I typed above. There are short pauses between each phrase. Then it just ends.

It has to be the craziest robo message I've ever gotten.

You mean the warranty on mine that is 17 years old with 193,000 miles on it? Oh, shirley not!

What about the home warrantee call from Larson E? Or the call for health insurance from Meineke Car Care Center...
