Got a call from Washington DC yesterday.

Seems that the US Government is giving me $9000! This nice gentleman with a foreign accent told me so!

Actually, it's going to be $18,000. Seems that about an hour before, someone from the US Government called the Boss and told her the same thing.

Must have been a bad connection, though. When I asked when they were sending the check, the connection dropped. Oh well, I'm SURE that the Check Is In The Mail.

Yeah. Got one of those yesterday as well. "Final notice".

Which means, of course, that...

I once got a call from a guy with an Indian accent purporting to be from the “IRS Department.” I gave him a ration of shit but didn't tell him that I knew he was a con artist because it ain't called the “IRS Department.” I didn't want to tip him off so he could change his script.

ON EDIT: And, just now, I got an “emergency” robocall from someone at “Microsoft Technical Department” telling me that my Windows product key had expired and that I needed to call them up immediately (he said, as he types this on his Mac).

By any chance did he have an East Indian accent'. Seems he does a lot of work for the "IRS" and "computer tech companies" these days,
