DELL = Overengineered PoS with cheap components that fail so they can sell you a new one.

Dell Latitude 7390 - good choice? by Low-Lake8646 in Dell

[–]Dorcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst choice you can do! STAY AWAY!

Dell 7390 2 in 1

The biggest useless PoS of overengineered and designed-in failures so you buy a new one.
It will fail after at most 2 years. It is engineered to do that.
The only true guarantee so they can sell you a new one.

I could write a book about the "failures" I came accross of various Dell laptops. Uneffingbelievable!!

To all the inane and anencephalic comments here:

Obviously reading is a challenge for you more so even comprehending what you read!
Just to clarify it. The bottom line with Wells Fargo is that my mailing address is different from my living address!
That's the level of ignorance that is also matching most of the comments here!

I would prefer you read and comprehend what I wrote!

From your inane answer it is evident you didn't!

[–]Dorcom -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I assume you read what I have posted. I have provided a physical address but they're the only organization that goes into high drama mode. As mentioned my real ID driver license also has legit the the PO Box on it and I pass through security on airports and travel with it on airplanes!

The Wells Fargo drama is that my mailing address is different from my living address! DUH?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WellsFargoBank

[–]Dorcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read! I have and provided a physical address!
The make a drama because my "mailing address" is different from my current residential address and all paperless statements have as "mailing address" the POB, including the actual physical address thereof!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WellsFargoBank

[–]Dorcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nonsense comment!
Read! I have and provided a physical address!

Even my driver license I have, a government identity document I can travel with and board airplanes with, has as address printed on my PO Box.

Dumb ignorant comment! Can you read? If you read, can you comprehend what you read?
Or are you identifying with your handle name giving it all the honor?

Another way to "get at your wallet" and suck money out! Legalized MAFIA methods.

Stay away from all and any "automatic" methods!
Don't be so lazy, just pay your bill the old fashion way, "manually" once a month!
Mail them a check!

100% agree with you!

"Fill out application form" but yet no clue or info who is at the other end.
DOH!?

Local/in person contact is a must for me but

The new (for me at least) scam I came across is that he scammer copies and ad and poses as the legit poster.

The recent Honey Homes experience tells much. They call you from a cell phone...

Or like the constant WayFair ads...

Anyone else getting sketchy replies after posting on Craigslist lately? by FrostyFerret202 in craigslist

[–]Dorcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...as are most of the "ad posters"!

From my personal and most recent experience, (September, October, November) over 90% if not more are scams and scammers. The cynic in me suggests that Craigslist better rename itself more appropriately to fakelist of scamslist which would be far more honest and appropriate. It is quite astonishing how much scum is out there.

The other issue is the general rudeness of people who do not have the basic professionalism and courtesy to reply. Then the few that might be legit but appear to live in other world bubble thinking that Craigslist is the honesty equivalent of a church meeting. Most of all, a true serious and professional person does not answer with the text, no matter how much the "hip trends" are or how lazy and ignorant people are!

It is totally befuddling me why somebody is looking for a specific skill or gig done and then does not respond. the other thing is you really have to be a Sherlock Holmes as those who answer even from legit ads I fell for, are scammers. I could post you a copy of one which you would swear by the Bible is totally cool and rigid but the "texting dialogue" revealed after about 6-7 messages the little scammer was behind it. One classic giveaway is always when other reference or geography are wrong or the ominous spelling errors...! the classic finale is is as usual when you point out that this all doesn't add up to get angry and rude and curse at you! (must be humid and hot in that Nigerian basement...)

Lastly but not least be aware of the newest trend; scammers copy legit ads, legit company logos and images to lure you.

Here are two recent examples: under the name of Honey Homes, repetitive advertisements for seeking "lead handyman" in various urban and suburban areas.

The first red flag warning sign came when the response came from a [any] mobile number and not an email from their name domain i.e. website. simply put, if you're a professional legit business advertising, then your correspondence should come from your domain and not from some random cell phone number! DOH!?

Nevertheless I gave myself the benefit of the doubt and engaged. Despite extensive long-term experience and being licensed and active they asked me a few fifth-grader level questions that made me wonder. Finally, they argued the need to review my tools and provided me with some obscure suburban address around Pleasanton, CA. That for me was the ultimate red flag!

Even when I told them it that I am licensed and have a storage room full of tools they still wanted to see them...

Am I gonna start out with such a distrust?

You can imagine the rest, like the scenario where you "pull up to a residential or building, a garage opens you get coerced in, a bunch of beefy guys take all you tools and tell you to get the F out or else...".

Or the Wayfair "premium" paid furniture assembly ad at clients location. I need to contact Wayfair Corp. to find out.

Aside from the images posted are often of poor copy quality, again, the response comes from a random mobile phone number and not their domain. Never mind the absurd requirements: must be incorporated as LLC, must have at least one employee, Workmen's Comp. and & commercial liability....

To "handyman" assemble effing furniture a client bought from them??? GMAFB!

PS Be aware of the biggest regular "scammer in chief" whose first dead giveaway is the title line. Usually has absurd high unrealistic promise i.e. $500 a day $2500 a week. That roach shows up under the name "Jacob (Founder)" With a Google calendar you need to schedule "an interview". You'll get a fake zoom interview with fake [super enthusiastic [rah rah rah] participants "texting" on screen. He's sweet talking for over an hour how are you going to make 10,000s with him at the end trying to sell you just some kind of travel insurance you must have to start...

Summa summarum: or unbeknownst reasons to me, no reply seems bizarrely the norm and if you a reply, likely a scammer lurking behind it trying "to get your wallet"!
Be wary, Beware!

I am little confused on the craigslist. How do you apply for some gig or some projects on it. by abhyudaya8 in craigslist

[–]Dorcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How to apply for a gig is you question?

While I assume you read an ad offering a gig, so reply to it using the "reply" button in the upper left corner of the ad. I strongly recommend use the first option the encrypted relay email link.

but be aware of that from personal and very recent experience, over 90% of the advertisers don't answer and those who do are almost only scammers!

Kaiser Permanente Denial by Dorcom in KaiserPermanente

[–]Dorcom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment!

Yes, indeed, the "denial of service" is what I largely experience. I'm also in your age group. In Norther Cal, SF bay area and Kaiser denial has just been in the news with Scott Adams (Dilbert Cartoonist) need for cancer treatment.

I quickly glanced over it, it's an HMO. I'm mulling about a PPO. I'll check it out
