BLACK BART Posted March 13, 2017 Report Posted March 13, 2017 Hate to ask in front of you all, God, the world, and everybody else but apparently I need to know - what's FMLA? A 4-page pamphlet just arrived in the mail from NST(?). They want me to send $249 ($499/super-duper edition) to get me in-the-loop on it. They say recent changes "have left organizations scrambling to make sure they're in compliance with the law" and that I need to "learn about the latest changes to FMLA and where the future stands." Gosh, I haven't even scrambled yet -- much less figured out where the future's goin'. I voted last time, but after that it's up to you-know-who and Kiplinger to fill me in, isn't it? Do you reckon it's an offshoot of the 4-H Club? All tipsters will remain anonymous (for those of you also not-in-the-know). 1 Quote

SaraEA Posted March 14, 2017 Report Posted March 14, 2017 Just today I got a phone message at home from the IRS, which is suing me for unpaid taxes. All reports say those calls have subsided since they shut down six call centers in India in Sept or Oct. A colleague got a text with the same message. Just like with the drug lords, when a group gets arrested others are standing by to take over the territory. This scam and the others mentioned in this thread are all trying to trick people into thinking they have to pay for this or that to comply with some law or another. Only works when they target law-abiding folks. We must all be renegades. 3 Quote
