I’m sure everyone here has, at least once, gotten an unwelcome robo-call from “Heather from account services.” That’s the most frequently-heard name, but the same voice, always female, has sometimes used other names as well.

Well, today, for the first time, I got a robo-call from a male voice identifying "him"self as “Tom from account services.”

Congratulations on coming out, Tom. It must have been painful for you to live as Heather for so long.

I’d be more amused if it was a male voice calling himself Heather.

Nothing trans-politics related, just the idea of the scammers not realizing that they should change the name.

I hope her two mommies are both supporting her.

Here’s hoping his mother bites his nuts off, and he can go back to Heather. Or Rachel, which is the other one we get. I hate those people.

Tom and Heather just want to facilitate you completing the transaction.

I’m sure I will actually laugh out loud, not merely LOL, the first time some male voice calling itself Peggy calls me. Now that Tom / Heather is out, it can’t be long until Peggy shows his true colors. 😃

I’m sure Peg has helped a few men discover something about themselves they never knew.
