Sunday Morning Sip

Good Sunday to all of you!

Ah-yup!

Mom is so proud.  

...and the absolute top reason to GET OFFLINE. 

 

 I feel good! 

 

When the moon hitsa your eye likea bigga pizza pie...

I must say, I outdid myself.  Vegetarian on top for dinner, husband asked if we could do pizza...

What I put together - Fresh, thin slices of tomatoes from the garden, caramelized Vidalia onions, fried mushrooms, chopped black olives (in olive oil), fresh mozzarella and goat cheese,  grated Parmesan cheese, tofu steak on a dollop of tomato sauce and hand made dough. Made a small Greek salad for the side.  

In a word.  GONE.  No left overs. 

A PSA: Phone Scam

My husband is getting flooded with voice mail on his Apple phone with a generic "It is URGENT that we speak to you about owed taxes" robo-message.  Seems to be a new attack vector that has come out in mid-October.  

• Here in RI, all of the numbers are originating from 833, 855 and 866 exchanges
• All of the robo-messages are the same context, demanding that we contact 1-833-766-1884 to address the matter.

I did a simple Internet search on that phone number, and all of the hits indicate it is a scam that started last month. 

Things to pay attention to before you do anything else.

Several details in this voicemail deserve attention which include:

• Unspecified tax debt: The message refers to past-due taxes without providing enough information to identify a specific liability.
• Pressure to act quickly: Statements about expired deadlines and increasing interest encourage recipients to respond before verifying the claim.
• Vague resolution program: The caller promises a resolution but does not explain the program's eligibility requirements, terms, or legal authority.
• A callback number supplied in the message: Recipients are directed to contact the same number rather than independently locating an official government contact.
• Potential requests for sensitive information: If (you pick up the phone and it is a LIVE person) the person answering asks for personal or financial details or Social Security number (SSN) before establishing their identity and legitimacy, stop the conversation.
• Threats or guaranteed results: Any subsequent claim that immediate payment will prevent arrest, guarantee debt cancellation, or automatically stop legal action should be treated as a serious warning sign.
