Here is another option for checking some of this stuff.
If you have caller ID feed the # into google www.google.com (for those in a
cave) it generally will give you the name and address of the phones owner.

Just one more thing that helps sort it out..

A heads up to all. This morning I got a call from Anthony who has a
foreign accent. He wanted 4 DR2424s shipped UPS overnight to an
apartment in NY. Hmmm. 4 DRs to an apartment. OK, I'll play. He said he
was going to pay with his credit card, umm, but he didn't have the
number and would have to call me back. Warning lights are flashing in
quality control. He calls back with an Amex number. I ask for the name
on the card. Mary Oliver. The scene with Steve Martin working at the gas
station in the movie The Jerk is playing in my head. "Thank you Mrs.
Neusbaum.". How did I know Mary wasn't available to talk to? He will
call me back with her phone number. I got his phone number so I could
get back to him with freight charges. 857 area code. Massachusetts. I
called Amex. Mary Oliver lives in Ohio and now Amex is very interested
in the solar business. He calls back and gives me Mary's number. Area
413. Massachusetts. ...oh, and Mary Oliver only speaks Spanish. With in
the next 24, that SOB is going to find out the letters UPS have changed
to NYPD.

Moral: The African email/solar scam is now domestic and coming to phone
near you. Smitty.
