I hear you Karen. I generally get offers for "enhancements" of the variety that I do not require. My blocked senders list seems to be getting a longer listing than the phone book.
However, I will share my tip for phone scammers, which I believe that I might have posted here before. You just say "Sorry, I don't have a phone". And while scammer tries to fathom this you hang up. It very much works!

Nothing seemed to happen.
I'm just your imagination
I was getting calls on my phone recently with no name or number showing. They would just let it ring and ring. I got so fed up the other night I quietly picked the receiver up and screamed as loud as I could into it! It sure frightened the stuffing out of my cats and I have had no more calls!
No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

I got a phishing scam confirming that my American Airlines itinerary was ready. Hmm...don't recall purchasing any AA tickets...I wish they had the custom recycle bin on my computer I saw years ago where the contents would "ignite" upon disposal.

I still get a lot from different banks, saying that there is suspicious activity on my account, and to login and verify this-that-and the other! Funny - I don't now, or never have had, accounts with ANY of these banks that are sending me this warning. Gee - you don't suppose that there's another ME out there - do you???? Now that in itself, is a scary thought.....
I have noticed something strange - but nice - tho. When I used my desktop, I would EASILY get 25+++++ scam mails every day. Since I've been using my laptop, I only get maybe 3 or 4 tops - daily. Nothing has changed - same email - so I don't know what the explanation is there. Don't get me wrong - I'm sure not complaining about it - just puzzled.

Yes - I know that. I was just using an example of some of the garbage that gets dumped on people by these scammers.

I wish more people knew that!Any bank spam I get is often for US banks (though not always) so I KNOW I can't possibly have an account with them!

NOT true. My bank will email me. They emailed me that they were giving me a new debit card because of the Home Depot hack. However, I did log on to my secure messaging in my account and sent them a message. They verified it was legit and I did receive a new debit card.

Your bank will email you only if you have given them your email address! The first thousand or so times I got spam for "First Third Bank" I had no idea it was even a real bank!
I also get emails claiming to be from Walgreens, thanking me for me recent visit! And while I drive by 3 different ones on a regular basis, I cannot eve remember the last time I was in one!
