Is it at least a prince from Spain? Maybe they moved from Nigeria to Spain, must be moving up in the world.

I think my Russian surname keeps me from getting rich, all I get is free vacations . Although Smith is not a common Spanish surname either.

You are LUCKY!!!!! Me, got a phone call the other day from an RCMP officer with a very thick foreign accent telling me that I'd better call Revenue Canada on a special phone number immediately and settle up my tax penalty. An he warned me that if I didn't do it, "there will be trouble". I was terrified.

Got that one also, said I was Constable Killyou with the Canadian Fraud Squad. Audible click on the other end. Good way to get off the phone hit list.

When I get those unsolicited call I simply reply that I will be calling the FBI and Homeland security and reporting the phone number saying that they are Isis recruiters.
They hang up and never call back.

Maybe if you paid your taxes with ITunes cards that wouldn't happen.
