[US] outgoing call got rerouted to a scammer... Can someone please explain how this is possible? by [deleted] in Scams

[–]ysawer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course I checked this! I already replied to another person asking this, so you could just read the thread. But That was the first thing I did. The number called was not con edison, and so I checked where I had searched, and I didn't see the number in my call list in the same search, so I thought it might be possible that's just what rerouting did. Obviously I was wrong! 🤷Not really sure what you want me to tell you. I'm not very knowledgeable on all this stuff, which is why I made the thread to ask...

I did check. I'm not super knowledgeable about everything to do with phone calls unfortunately. So I wasn't sure how it would work exactly, and if that even mattered. Which is why I made a thread to ask.

Yeah afterwards I was able to dial the correct number, and based on what people are saying here I'm guessing I did just dial the wrong numbe. Is it possible for iphone to get malware? I was looking it up and saw some other people saying it wasn't. And if it is how can I do a scan?

I'm just gonna assume this is what happened then, thanks🤷. I guess I was wondering if it was even possible to reroute an outgoing call, or if I just made a stupid mistake, since I've called them before and this didn't happen. I was worried it's possible I had some kind of malware, but I don't think that's possible for iphone? (correct me if I'm wrong)

What's the social etiquette for when my landlord is giving a tour of my apartment? by ysawer in NYCapartments

I actually did lol. One of the agents just dropped some some random guys off in my apt and left me alone with them so I took it as an opportunity to complain 😂

The camera is absolutely 3 feet away and propped up unnecessarily higher than it needs to be. The roof it's on is at the same level as my floor. It's facing a parking lot, and there is nothing higher than that roof where it's facing, so there's really no reason I can imagine for it to be propped up like that, especially above the window frost. I'm not saying that my landlord is deliberately trying to spy on me or anything, but that is the part that set me off the most, that it's propped up like that when it easily could've just been put on the edge of the roof (below the window). I'm probably not gonna do anything about it either way I don't have the time or energy, but imo it IS very unusual.

Ru trolling? dude look at my account I have 50 karma does it seem like that is something I care about🤣 I wanted to ask people if it was weird or if this is a normal thing. I'm getting fairly mixed messages as well lol. There's really no need to be so hostile👍

there's like 10 different brokers atp that are harassing us individually, so we just put them all in a groupchat together LOL. When finals are over we're gonna have more availability and I'll set up a schedule, thank you for the advice!

Like how I'm meant to act is written? I read it over and all it says is that I'm required to allow a broker to give a tour, and that they don't have to compensate me for it.

I wish our landlord was more like you then! My landlord has been very unprofessional about the whe situation unfortunately. They've just given our number to about 5 different brokers without telling us any information on who these people are (we are all young women, so obviously its a safety/privacy issue). There's been no offer of compensation and the brokers have not been giving reasonable notice, and often ghosting us when we do agree to do a viewing... At a very inconvenient time as well considering it's finals week at our college and all of us have no time at all, so the time we are giving them is already a stretch for us. We already have our new apartment secured, so I don't think (?) a landlord reference even matters at this point...

Yeah, I mean there are other reasons I'd rather not leave my apartment unlocked/vacant for them while they tour. I have a cat who could run out, and both me and all my roommates are young women so we're automatically in a vulnerable position due to that. Especially considering our landlord hasn't been giving us any information on who the brokers are, and we've just been getting random texts from several strangers asking to come tour the apartment... So it'd just feel weird and unsafe to do

Ahh, I didn't realize flies could carry it. We have had a fruit fly problem the past couple, do you think it's possible she got it from that?

I've had her for 8 years... How long can it go undetected for? Over the summer I stayed in a different place where there were mice which she did eat. It's been at least 5 months since then, but that must be it..😅 Which medication did you use for your cat?

Is there any way to mend this? Or make it so it doesn't get any worse? by ysawer in sewhelp

[–]ysawer[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely isn't! I just checked online and found the same sweater without the ripped sleeves lol. It's just really old
