As someone who doesn’t like using the phone any way, I have to wonder…how on earth did people survive before mobiles and caller display? I never, and I mean never answer the phone unless I know who is calling me. This actually saved my mum from getting scammed a few weeks ago, a number kept on calling the landline but I didn’t recognise it so did a search via a Phone Number Lookup service online and it turned out it was some company pretending to be from BidTV asking for pin numbers. Sneaky. I told my mum about it and not to answer, or to tell them she was calling the police if they called again…and that’s exactly what she did the next day when they tried it again.

Thank the heck for the Internet and sites like NationWidePhoneLookup.com, hey?
