— Well, that's it. So I call, and they say, "Not enough money on your account!" And I just topped it up. I called the operator, and she said, "You don't have any money!" It turned out that the phone number I called the cat shelter on was a paid one. And there's no such shelter!
- Well, I warned you that before you call somewhere, it would be a good idea to understand where exactly you are calling. Do you have your phone with you?
Safety Tales: Unexpected Fine
Vladimir Bezmaly | 10/04/2019
Two weeks had passed since his vacation, but Jean could not forget his summer trip to the Republic of Ch. Green mountains, emerald forests, turquoise sea, and most importantly, his beautiful Lucy was nearby! God, how wonderful! But everything in this world comes to an end. Time to go to work. And today he remembered the summer, looking through the photos again. But life goes on! Today Lucy promised to come home from work quickly, which means they have a wonderful Friday evening!
- Lucy?! Thank you for coming early. But what are you upset about? What happened? How can I help?
— Yes, I got a message from my bank. They wrote off 500 euros in fines. With the wording "For improper driving and breach of contract." Some company Car Rental. I don't even have a clue who it is.
— Did you call the bank?
- Yes! They said that the fine came from this company and the details will be on Monday.
- You said you don't even know who it is?
— Yes. But I was told that this was the company from which I rented a car during my stay in the Republic of Ch. And that there were two fines, one for speeding, sent by the police of the republic, and the hungary whatsapp data for being in an area prohibited for visiting by rented cars. And we were warned about this.
- But how? We haven't seen a single video camera on the roads?
- Let's now look for the number you called.
About 15 minutes passed.
- Look, Khryusha. This is a cat shelter, this is a "children's aid fund", and this is a "veterans' fund", and all on one phone. In short, it's a scam. Unfortunately, you won't get your money back, and I'll pass the data on to the police. Maybe there will be fewer fools. However, no, there won't be, because who's stopping him from buying a new number tomorrow? No one! So just be smarter! Call from a landline! Or better yet, check the number and then call. Or don't call!
Have you ever come across such "pitiful" ads? Not even once? You're lucky!
