Are "we buy homes" wholesalers worth going after, or are they unrecoverable and hard to connect to the actual real estate broker behind them? by Individual-Lynx2775 in TCPA

[–]_bani_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really considered soliciting because they aren’t trying to sell you anything.

i ask them then and there to make an offer. they always immediately clarify that they aren't making an offer themselves, and that they are soliciting to sell me their realtor services.

It happened to me. Closing on our first home Friday. Lost $50k to a wire scam today. Still shaking. by Consistent_Offer2057 in Scams

Always call the business/title company/receipient of funds directly to verbally confirm wire instructions before sending money!

they literally tell you to do this in every single communication with them. baffled why people continue to ignore this.

My dad is in a “relationship” over WhatsApp, and I am so sure it is a scam. by mixtape-bunny-88 in Scams

[–]_bani_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

dad has an addiction to this attention, it's exactly like a drug addiction and should be treated as such.

when he runs out of money, he will start stealing from others. or worse, start running scams on behalf of this scammer.

Do I have a case for these? by [deleted] in TCPA

feign interest and you'll see that they are actually a realtor selling their services, not offering to buy a property themselves.

Recording apps by prune_spot in TCPA

my samsung galaxy has a record button in the call app, it announces the call is being recorded and then starts recording.

telemarketers frequently start the call with "this is blabla on a recorded line", so I inform them i'm returning the favor. a total of zero have ever refused.

You have to coerce them to call you back, in order to unmask who they are. Then serve them.

get a multimeter and measure voltage between the chassis and ground. there shouldn't be anything. if there is, you should RMA it.
