Re: Phone scam

My mum has an old phone...you cannot block numbers on it(yes you can buy a device to add to the phone...but i think she might find that confusing).
I have just ordered her a new large button phone that will allow her to block these nuisance calls.
I was there this morning and in the space of an hour she had had 4 calls about window scrappage, kitchen scrappage and one that sais she had been involved in an accident and was entitled to claim.
When I am there I pick up the phone for her.....she is harassed by these many unwanted phone calls.
She has said she doesn't want this new phone, but I have told her she is having it....she didn't want a stair lift, but now doesn't know what she did without it!
