    <content type="html">&amp;nbsp;The correct answer? No answer. Has anybody else been getting those puzzling calls that start with, &amp;quot;This is Grace, hearing administrator on a recorded line. Can you hear me?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Usually I hang up the phone as the first words of a&amp;nbsp; robocall start rolling out, but this one is so puzzling that I have been staying on the line for a few seconds to see what happens next. Nothing, that's what. After about 5 seconds of dead air, &amp;quot;Grace&amp;quot; hangs up. I finally googled it. Well guess what. &lt;a href="http:// https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/nation-now/2017/01/27/can-you-hear-me-phone-scam/97152110/"&gt;It's a scam&lt;/a&gt;. A scam to capture one more piece of your personal data that you didn't even realize was valuable - your voice saying &amp;quot;Yes.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If your imagination fails you as you try to imagine what scammers could do with that, &lt;a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/nation-now/2017/01/27/can-you-hear-me-phone-scam/97152110/"&gt;follow the link&lt;/a&gt;. And don't say anything to Grace, just hang up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br type="_moz" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=dreamshark&amp;ditemid=487382" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
