Phone scammer tried to con William Webster, the only person ever to serve as director of both the CIA and FBI: it did not go well

I started using Google’s Call Screen and it’s kinda like that. When my phone rings I click the button to screen the call and they get a message saying “Please state your name and the purpose of your call”. The response shows up as text on my screen and I can decide if I want to pick up or not at that point.

But I’d rather just give them a busy signal.

I rather give them an electrical shock, if we are being honest.

You can count on BoingBoing to turn any story into a morality tale on how society sucks, it’s America’s fault, or we’re marching toward inevitable climate disaster. Or all three.

Great! So something CAN be done about it, as long as you have been the head of the CIA and FBI.
Good luck to the rest of us.
