Talk about a spending spree!!

According to email messages I have received since midnight, I have spent:

--$599.99 each on three different events -- that's 3 x $599.99.
-- $599.99 on a Microsoft bundle.
-- $599.99 on a Dell computer bundle.
-- $599.99 on a Verizon bundle.
-- $599.99 on an Apple bundle.
-- I owe the State of Virginia $1,210.00 in unpaid tolls for passing through toll booths, which is interesting because since we bought our new Subaru Outback in March 2025, we have not traveled more than 10 miles away from our apartment, none of that on toll roads.
-- And a beautiful Ukrainian woman wants to meet me.

They are persistent. I'm almost 90 and haven't driven on long trips for years, so I knew it was bullcrap from the start. I sent them a message stating that and they still sent the toll road bills. After several more, I finally I sent them an expletive laden text that would make a sailor proud, (not the most adult thing to do but ......). I was just fed up. Never heard from them again.

all this artificial intelligence can track who is criticizing administration officials but it doesn't know where the boner pill ads come from?

Make paying your tolls as a condition of meeting you!
