I’d keel over if I ever got a call from Tricare....
I think my mom has had this happen to her. I know she’s had a couple of scammers at least. I’ll have to mention it to her. One was trying to tell her he was her grandson. Thing is, she does have an adult grandson that she hadn’t heard from in years. She thought it was him. When she started asking him questions about his life, not suspecting it wasn’t him, he hung up.
“Tricare” called me, asking for me by name, which is odd since I have been out for a LONG time. I told them I was dead. Their confusion was amusing. They asked for my son by name, and he is on active duty. I told them he died too. They asked when he died. I held the air rifle I had been sighting in right next to the phone, dry-fired, and said “just now”. They hung up on me. I’m not sure why.
About once or twice a year, I’ll get a call like that when I have a few minutes to kill, and it’s always great fun.
We get these calls. We hang up.
