I got called today too from 240.324.3363.

I'm not afraid to call the cops on this a##hole.
If I could just understand more of what he was saying the call was breaking up really bad.

If he calls again I'll be ready.

I think I mus stop taking a bananakin when I get in from work. It makes me do daft things. Now I've phoned one of the numbers as the representative of Free-Call Extortion4U, offering atractive rates and messgae service and gave the contact number as one of the other numbes used.

Please someone stop me.

Just because they taste like banana-flavored Runts candy, does not mean you should eat them as such...

Be careful!

I've known people to eat one-too-many and wake up the next day with a cleanly shaven head.

It's an occaisional once a day dose after a particularly stressfull day. It's draw back is it relaxes me so much that I start to be sort of my old self... a bit of a mischief maker. I think my hair is safe. I have, during realy bad peiods of anxiety taken 4-6 mgs a day, but try to only do that for the shortest time possible. Now I'm in a place where the odd one every now and then when you can feel your stress levels getting out of hand is ok and can ward off full blown panic attacks.

Nothing wrong with being a mischievous type. Seems like I've been causing all sorts of mischief today meself.

Glad to hear you're paying attention to it's effects and the potential pitfalls in using it.

It certainly lowers one's inhibition, that's for sure.

Torrent still make them as Clonotrill-2 and Intas do something very similar called Zapiz-2 which have a minty banana-ry taste and are much smaller and come in regular blisters.

Law enforcement dont call...they knock if they have something concrete

Knowing the area/state you speak of...the number should come out of Newark or Trenton

Feds/Customs will not call to talk EVER...I have experience with them unfortunately

They WILL know E V E R Y T H I N G about you (kids and especially spouse) if it is legit

Never EVER admit to anything on the phone...EVER. This is definitely a scam...scary and cruel...however...bogus.

Ignore it and it will go away...if they smell fear...they will feed on it

Has anyone ever heard of an person attempting to extort money from another showing up?


Everyone needs to remember...that ANYONE can use something called "caller id spoofing" for free in order to not be traced. My friend actually has an app on his iPhone that does it for free too.

He is able to make my caller ID show anything he wants it to. Go to a site called phonegangster DOT com and do it to yourself for free from the web.

That's a cool app. It show how easy it is for some a-hole to scare the heck out of anyone who doesn't understand how easy it really is.

When I received my phone call I was truly frightened but what kept going through my head was all the post from DB.ers I have read through the years that have said...DO NOT EVER ADMIT TO ANYTHING.

The app really does work. I just used it to play a joke on my wife. The free version only displays the state for the area code you type in but it goes to show you that a phone call usually doesn't mean much in a case like this.

That sounds technical but intriguing. How would one of these 'soundboards work'. I always use Skype to call..would it work wiithh this if I call him?

Am bored and on a day off and doing laundry *yawns*

I load up a sounds board via a web site, one that has some pretty crazy stuff on it, when a caller calls I start hitting off the wall stuff via speaker phone. Some are pretty funny..lol

I had found a message board dedicated to people scamming the scammers. If I find it I will post. It was funny as hell. Mostly it was people messing with the Nigeria money scam e-mails.

My son just picked up a phone call from 609-223-7741. Some man kept asking him to please put "mommy" on the phone. I figured it was the same outfit in NJ, and I was right. I wish I would have had my air horn available.

It's rubbish living in the UK. They never call me. I have to make do with winding up email Nigerian scammers....and that's like shooting fish in a barrel. Telephone extortionists would be a dream come true.... muck em about for a while until I got bored, (in fact, pretending to be some sort of sexy chat line would be hilarious, paricularly when you start quoting rates per minute and asking for CC details) then get friends to search and locate said extotioner and get him behind bars...or a good kicking at least. If it stops em doing it again, then it may harm one, but at least would end countless harm to others.

It's just such a bugger I have to call them, it's not nearly so much fun as if it's on their tab on an international call.

I LOVE those boards.Hilarious how far some of them will go in the belief that they are going to get some money from you.
