Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty assumes.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
On learner type Amazon dot com.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
I kick it my way to about two million, five
hundred thousand books subbs remark lease.
Speaker 4 (00:12):
I can look up such as Mediterranean cookies and I
find fifty seven books on the subject. Amazon dot Com
gives such great discounts that even with a shipping you
come out ahead.
Speaker 5 (00:22):
I like not standing in line, stay of standing in line.
I just sit here at punch one button and my
book's on the way.
Speaker 6 (00:27):
I found a whole range of books from fiction to
nonfiction on tit Temporary America, on Olympics, and Nesday.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
I absolutely great time.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
KFI AM six forty is Later with mo Kelly.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Remember when Amazon used to sell books a long time ago.
Speaker 5 (00:43):
Now they sell everything.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I got an email once from Jeff Bezos back back
in the day. Really yeah, And I have a letter
on a little Christmas chochki that he sent me. I found,
like you know, you have boxes in the house. I
found this box and it was wasn't really marked say
Amazon on the outside. I opened it up and it
was a pre printed letter from Jeff to some of
(01:06):
the early people involved and say, Jeff Bezos, we appreciate you.
B bah bah kfi.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
A six forties later with Mo Kelly, course that's Marsha Colliers,
we talk about all things tech. That was a vintage
Amazon commercial and it reminded me and of course reminded
you what Amazon used to be and how what they
used to be put bookstores as we know it pretty
much out of business.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
And now they're putting a lot of other brick and
mortar well.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
In line with what we're talking about today. I have
a friend, the techie guy leron sergev and he's on YouTube.
He does a lot of videos and he's done a
lot of testing, and we were talking about how do
they get your data? How do they get your information?
Did you know he installed Amazon on a brand new phone,
(01:56):
never logged in, never even logged into his Google account,
so it was just a blank phone. And he did
this with iPhone as well. And guess what it was
calling in regularly.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
So even though he didn't log in, even though he
did not use it to make any type of purchase,
it was stealing data from the phone and communicating.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Well, it was communicating I guess in hopes of there
being more data because they were DNS hits, which we
don't want to get into. Technically, TikTok was actually at
TikTok was the second worst, but really not as nasty.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
What does that say for those phones which have Amazon
is what we call bloat wear because depending on your carrier,
that's for install there.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
That's why it's there. Jesse, you know, I know we
all think the microphone listens to us. Do you realize
if that was to transfer that amount of data it
would be in a day. It would probably be a
billion petro bike. It just it's not happening. What it
picks up is what you type, what you search for,
(03:07):
what apps you have, what you look at. That's that's it.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
I've had a number of people over the years say, hey, mo,
what do you recommend as far as trying to scrub
yourself from the Internet. Some people say the Internet is forever.
I would like to get rid of, you know, some
of these sites having my personal data.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Is there anything that we can do?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, I'll give you one free thing and one thing
you have to pay for. Okay, okay, I'll take it.
So you know that Google will remove search results about you.
You know, like if you Google your name, you see
something that's untoward, it's not a matter of censoring. If
(03:49):
your private information appears in a Google search, that's against
their policy and they will remove it. Obviously they don't know.
And how do you do that? There are a couple
of ways you can do it. Let's say you see
it and you choose you see your name, click the
(04:12):
three dots next to any web result you'll see it
next to web results, or always three dots and pick
remove result from the panel on the right. Then choose
the reason for your removal request. One option is it
shows my personal info and I don't want it there.
(04:34):
You want to click that. You can also pick I
have a legal removal request. You know, that could be
if somebody has stolen like put paragraphs in my book
on there or something like that, they would take it out. Now,
that won't take it down from the internet, mind you.
It will take it out of Google search. The search results.
(04:55):
You can request or refresh and you're done and that's it.
It's gone. But what I do for Google is I
have removal requests in and that's if you have a
Google account. You don't have to have Google one. It
(05:18):
gives you those two options we spoke of before, and
then a little more. Uh, you can go and start
removal requests from Google. You just go to Google's support
page for removing results and you can google that Google
removing results, and there's a place where they will continually
(05:42):
track for your name. Now, my name shows up in
my podcast title, right, because I'm all about branding. I
stand my name everywhere.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Right, that's personal but also public information.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Right, So when it comes up with those you know,
like in Zambia where they listen to the pot believe
it or not, I leave it. But otherwise it shows
up in a few other places. And that's unfortunately where
Google stops because it doesn't go deep Google. This is
(06:15):
removing from Google search results.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
That says to me, it will help somewhat, but the
Internet is still forever.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah, yeah, that's true. So what I do. I think
I've mentioned to you before. I use something called delete me, which,
by the way, if anyone wants to use delete me,
I have a twenty percent coupon. Just messaged me on
Facebook or I'll give it to you. It's not a Now,
I don't make any money. You get twenty percent off,
(06:46):
but it's one of those weird I'm not going to
give it to you over the radio. So what they
search are data brokers, people like people search spoko. Are
you familiar with any of these?
Speaker 3 (07:00):
I am very familiar with spokio, and it amazes me
how much information it can derive on people.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
One hundred and forty they deal. They scan one hundred
and forty five data brokers. If you subscribe to their
it's about one hundred and twenty year, about ten dollars
a month, but they go deep in every month. They
review listings one hundred and sixty two, four hundred and
sixty one last month. Then they go for data brokers
(07:30):
with info about you when they pick up, and you
have to give them a certain amount of data first name,
last name, your spouse's name, anything that's connected to you,
your addresses because you know a lot of those are
real estate sites where they have people's names and owners
and this and that, and they'll show you stuff in
(07:53):
the beginning, like ex husband's name. Boy, I had a
lot to fill in there, but I was getting on
all his relatives page and all that stuff, and it
would then link to my private information. That's unnerving. Yes, yes,
so ten dollars a month. These people scrub it. They
(08:14):
send you like a twenty page report every quarter. So
it works. It's called delete me, and their website is
joineddelete me dot com.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Those are two good options, obviously one free. One might
cost you a little something, but it.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
Will help.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
Diminish that footprint out there of personal information.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
And I do both.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
So when we come back, let's talk about the top
ten scams of twenty twenty four. And hopefully nobody listening
has been caught up in any of them, but there's
a good chance you might have.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Absolutely you're listening too.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Later with Moe Kelly on Demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Hey, everybody, the new computers are here, new computers.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Who may I ask?
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Authorized new computers?
Speaker 7 (09:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Who did? Who did?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
I did?
Speaker 7 (09:05):
IBM?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Of course I did the.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
New IBM Personal System too, the next generation of personal computing.
New computers, new printers and software, and IBM's new graphics
put two hundred and fifty six colors on a screen
at once, so our work will be bolder and brighter.
If it'll make him brighter, count me in Personal System
too is faster. Oh and it has incredible power.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Someone say power. It's a miracle. He's following instructions. Hey,
we were.
Speaker 8 (09:33):
Made for each other, so they need to use even
you could use it.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Can we tie it all together?
Speaker 9 (09:37):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Personal System two has excellent connectivity, so we can.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Talk to each other. Well if we have to.
Speaker 9 (09:43):
It's just what we need.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Who is responsible for this?
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Why you may recognize some of those voices, it's the
whole cast of.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
Mash all right.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I was wondering who it was.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Yep, yep, if I am six forty is later with
mo Kelly Marshall, Collier joins us, You're also going to
give us some information on some of the top scams
of the past year. And I shudder to think whether
I might have been caught up in one or some.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Well, the FTC announces the top scams of twenty twenty four.
What number are we going to start with? I want
to start with number five? All right, number five? Hold
on one second. Here we go. Internet services, things that
(10:30):
people can do to help you with your internet, to
speed up your internet and just do things for you.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Oh, because your computer's a little slow, right, got it?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
It needs it needs, you know, a little tech support,
and they'll be more than happy to give you tech
support and look at your screen and move your mouse
for you and just fix.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Everything for a nominal price, and also access to everything
on your right exactly.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
And that's if you're lucky. If you're unlucky, the best
case scenario, they just put a bug in it and
it keeps sending information regularly to the people or some
other malware exactly exactly. So you know. That's and what's
interesting is younger people have lost more money more often.
(11:19):
It's younger people who are falling for these Yeah, we're cynical,
Yeah we heard yes, yeah, sure from Microsoft.
Speaker 9 (11:26):
Right.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
Let me just call one of my friends. Let me
call my kid.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
He could do it right, exactly, Okay. Number four investments.
The biggest losses happened by bank transfer or payment, followed
by cryptocurrency. They have these lovely link young ladies with
(11:51):
beautiful social media photos who engage in DMS with gentlemen
who may be lonely, who they may have talked. Targeted
because they can get their data online and see that
their wives just died or something like that.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
My wife is still living and I still get the DX.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
I'm being serious because you'll see it's some sort of
AI or they stolen the photos of some model and
they want to talk to you about crypto and investments,
and it's say, hey, you can wait, make a whole
lot of money and you know, just invest here.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
We see that's a bad one. They've dove right in.
What they're supposed to say is, you know, you're really
a handsome man. I'd love to get to know you better.
And then they engage you in a conversation and they
build trust and friendship with you. And you asked, well,
what do you do for a living? Oh? I invest?
(12:43):
Uh huh, I do it quite successfully. And then you
say how do you do that? And they say, glad
you asked. That's just right cryptocurrency. I've been very successful
in trading my.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Crypto, even with the southern drawl.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
But okay, so they do this and what I Obviously
you're not a lonely guy, because these people like dove
into the crypto right away. But the really deep scams
where people lose half a million, three hundred and fifty
and more are lonely older people and dumb young people.
(13:23):
What you know, So the.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Crypto will get the older people.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
And I'll say, the speed up my computer scans get
the younger people.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yep, yep, yep, yep. And number three job openings, business
and job openings. How many texts do you get?
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Hey, fake job listings right, so they can get your resume,
all your information.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Right, and you get texts. I get text about it
all the time, and I wonder, I don't want a job,
who are you? And how do you have my information?
But of course I never ask any of that. I
just report it as spam and block and block, and
you can do that in your messages by those magic
three dots on Android, and you can also do it
(14:13):
on iPhone. But the job or opportunity scam, which is
why you ever wonder why these people on LinkedIn have
on their profile picture open for work. I mean, hello,
welcome to fraud.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Well, see the thing is I actually to be transparent.
I have that on my profile, but I don't have
my phone number on my profile, so if anyone reaches
out to me on my phone, they don't and it
doesn't show up in my contacts that I know right there,
it is a scam.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Well that's good, but you know, I hate to say it,
but not everybody is as careful as you.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
You know, I just don't like people. I don't trust people.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
That's part of it. Well, that's why we're here at
at dark radio station talking to each other. Yeah, the
job opportunity thing is bad. Now. Second is one that
we all know online shopping and reviews.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
Oh, please explain that for folks who don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Well. First of all, one of the reasons why Amazon
put verified purchase on some of the reviews was to
verify that actually the person bought things there. When you
see reviews, a lot of times they will be flowery
and descriptive and wonderful and not written by a customer.
(15:46):
They'll be written by the company. Talking about all of that,
my new book Android Smartphones for Seniors for Dummies. It's
on Amazon. It's doing very well and people seem to
really like it. And it's in color with Bigger So anyway,
I saw the reviews and I saw one came in
from the UK and it didn't say verified customer. But
(16:07):
I don't think they do that from other countries. And
I called my cousin in England, I said, did you
leave a review of my book?
Speaker 7 (16:15):
No, so's somebody in the UK.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I like that, and some guy from Australia too, But
the point is, if you're listening, thank you. The point
is the reviews negative and positive, are very difficult. You
have to really judge a product. You need to know
about the product. Like I know when I shop on Amazon,
(16:39):
I have to be careful of fabric. I don't know.
You and I have spoken. We don't like artificial fabrics.
I always read the fact. Yeah, that's always a crapshoot. Yeah,
the clothing feels so silky on my body. We could
go into that deeper, but probably not the time for it.
But anyway, the fabric is just difficult. So you have
(17:01):
to read the manufacturer's description and read the questions. The
questions are on Amazon, for example, are really where you'll
get the four one one For those who don't know
what the four one one is, that's reference now. Yeah,
back in the old days, if you dialed four to
one one on your phone, dial, oh, you tap right,
(17:23):
don't know what? They don't know what like a rotary
phone is? Oh that break your nails? Every time I'm
telling you I had the same problem. Did you look
good in that? Anyway? The number one bad scam on
the internet is impostors, and they're there. They're out there,
(17:54):
mo Kelly, there have been some impostors. I've let you
know when people have hijack not hijacked your account, but
copied your Yeah. I can think of five people in
this country whose email address is not what they think
it is. They probably don't have an email address, and
every time they write down, well, I need your email address,
(18:17):
they put down my email address because we have the
same name, and they're from five different And that is
the least of it, because I end up with all
the junk mail from all these places.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
You too, huh.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I can't count how many times I've ended up on
some obviously insurance list or something where obviously they're just
putting down my email address.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Right right now. To me, that's as far as an imposter.
That's the most biggest violation of anything. And people who
will shop or sign up for things with your name. Yes,
it's terrible. Investment scams lead to the biggest losses. People
reported losing money more often when contacted through social media,
(19:02):
So be careful who you talk to and engage in
a direct message.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Well, I don't have to be careful talking to you,
Marsha Collier. I can verify you are you and you
are my friend and you are our tech expert.
Speaker 5 (19:16):
Don't you don't like me saying that, but you are
like that.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
That could be a promo. Did you hear that?
Speaker 5 (19:21):
Steph, and she's going in the promo Marcia Collier. I
love seeing you.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Thanks Mo, thank you for all you do.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
You too.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 10 (19:44):
Mister mo'kelly, he wounds as.
Speaker 8 (19:52):
This is autonomous vehicles might beyond a mod walla cools on,
clean your tone under control.
Speaker 7 (20:07):
This is Kelly is wrong.
Speaker 11 (20:10):
Moo thinks he's on the payroll.
Speaker 8 (20:13):
Forswamo wrong over.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
I got nothing to say, Eric Lostardo, you did it again, Davin,
My god, I purposely wanted to hear it for the
first time with you guys.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
We know that was coming. We did not know.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
No. I got it the other day and I did
not listen.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
I said to myself, just wait till the next wave
Bolt story pops up in the new We're gonna see
what treats Eric.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Eric, you are a.
Speaker 5 (21:05):
Genius, genius man, genus.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Okay, we have to heard to get through these stories
because we need to listen to that again.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Tuala.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
You gave me a story saying that it was basically
an editorial which was on matadornetwork dot com.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Editor Well, it was.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
It was an a piniod piece. San Francisco is Proof.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Here's the title, San Francisco's proof Self driving cars are
changing the way tourists explore cities, talking about the safety
aspect in a positive way. Yes, of Waimo and how
it is growing within Silicon Valley. Where Silicon Valley is
I'll say, adopting and becoming more and more comfortable with it.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
I'm just paraphrasing, but is that fair?
Speaker 6 (21:48):
And throughout San Francisco and other areas where Waymo has launched,
more and more tourists are accessing Waymo because it allows
them to drive about the city, taking all the sites,
not worry about crashing, not worrying about where they're going
because Waymo's doing it for them. So it is like
a personalized, I don't know, tour guide through Southern California,
(22:12):
through San Francisco, Arizona, wherever you are. Waymo people are
enjoying the rides.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
That's one person's characterization of it. Yeah, but there's also
some other stories that you decline to include in the
totality I'm talking about that.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
Oh we're not okay? How about me?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Then?
Speaker 3 (22:37):
Uh, Waimo got five hundred and eighty nine tickets last year.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
Five hundred and eighty nine? How many, nearly how many all.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
Just people get last year? Let's no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Just be how many tickets were issued in southern California
or anywhere where waymo is versus how many just waymam
got I think this is singling out Weymo. Well, I
don't know if that's a fair assessment or graph or anything.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Clearly, Weima was parking in places that it was not
supposed to park, and park there long enough to actually
get a ticket. It's not like it pulled up somewhere
and the meter person just will say aha and right
out from behind a bush.
Speaker 6 (23:19):
Oh oh no, no, no no, because met people do do that.
What do you are you trying to stand up for
meter people right now? Are you trying to say that
meter people are just these good willed individuals that are
gonna come Hey, sir, I know you were in this
restaurant getting something.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
You know how long it takes to get into a
Weymo when it pulls up.
Speaker 6 (23:36):
I don't want three minutes time. No, we're not defending
meter people.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
We're not.
Speaker 6 (23:41):
Okay, you get a ticket, you mo kelly will lose
your mind if you were just three seconds late. You
see them standing out there to late. I've already started
writing a ticket. I can't undo what I'm doing right now.
Five hundred and eighty nine. That just says that you
are a lawless driver. You have no business being on
the road. You need to have your driving privileges taken away.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Five.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
You're probably parking at fire lanes, you're parking in bus lanes,
you're probably parking right next to fire hydrants.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
That is the most unfair justification I have heard you
use against wame.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
I cannot use.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
I got parking tickets, I got more, Give me more,
I've got, I've got you.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
Let's hear that intro again. That's far more entertained. And
if you don't know, this is a playoff way, y'all
will be there.
Speaker 10 (24:33):
Malcael McDonald, mister mo'kelly, he wants a So.
Speaker 7 (24:43):
This is a tone of miss vehicles might be.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
On your ball.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
Moping too.
Speaker 8 (24:51):
All of coms on cleaner tone under control.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
This this role.
Speaker 11 (25:01):
If Loo thinks he's on the payroll, you're.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Honor the prosecution press. I have to say anymore. Eric
Lesardo is spoken. Eric, you are lucky that I love you.
Good sir, this was outstanding. You have out done yourself.
Good sir. Damn that is good. Part of the reason
(25:47):
that this is the coolest three hours in all talk
radio is Eric Lesardo. If you hear all of our
intros or most of our intros product of Eric Lesaro.
He did the intro for the RUNA report, He did
the intros plural for Nick Poliochini in various forms of fashion,
(26:07):
the viral load, obviously, Claudian Cooper, the nice exercise lady,
He's done them all.
Speaker 12 (26:13):
Oh that's a good one. You should play that one man.
Every time I think, Okay, how is he gonna top this? Hey,
can you find Claudian? Let me try to find it.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Yeah, because he did Claudian's I don't say, maybe two
three weeks ago or so. He is a genius because
if you don't know, he's doing all the instrumentation, all
the arrangements, all the vocals, and if you know the
song that is based on it sounds eerily accurate. As
far as the song. He's not just doing the same chords.
(26:43):
He's usually in the same instrumentation. Where when he did
the Viral Load and he used the song Erotic City,
it sounds like it's the instrumental from Erotic City, the
Prince song, and he's freakish. It's great, it's great. I
use the word genius on occasion, and I use it sparingly.
(27:07):
He is one of those people who is an actual genius.
So if we can have Stephan, he's looking for it
and he'll pull it up. And that's one is one
of more recent ones, and we'll play that one real quick. Mark,
what did you think the first time you heard the
Ronal Report intro?
Speaker 12 (27:26):
I mean I was howling, just like I was howling
at this one right now. Each time we hear a
new one from him, he outdoes himself. And I'm not
just saying that either. I mean, I'm kind of a
tough crowd, but he brought me to tears with this
one tonight. He's got an uncanny ability to mimic pretty
much anything that we've ever heard.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
All I can say is we, as far as you
know the show is concerned, we don't listen to them
in advance. We just take Eric's word for it, and
we hear it when everyone else hears it, like when
we heard the Claudine Cooper won and let me before
you play it. This was actually a play on what
(28:08):
Mark Ronner said. Because Claudining Cooper come in do her segments,
and somewhere along the way, maybe Mark didn't fully know
her name. At that point, you referred to her as
the nice exercise lady informally, just amongst us, and somehow
it stuck and we started saying it on air. Then
(28:28):
I guess Eric heard it and used that as the inspiration.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
For this, and this is who's that lady? The eyes
brothers and faced the ball.
Speaker 8 (29:02):
Should work out, this don't work out.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
And then and I made mention of this.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Not too long ago, we had uh the viral load,
which was he did two for Tiffany Hobbs.
Speaker 5 (29:21):
One was Erotic City.
Speaker 12 (29:23):
Now, if you don't mind me interrupting, sure, he got
in touch with me to let me know that he
did that one specifically after I mentioned, well, you're not
going to do one based on Erotic City. He considered
that kind of a challenge. Oh and challenge accepted. Yeah, yeah,
he really knocked this one out of the park. Sounds
(29:45):
exactly like the song.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
Now Facebook talk Tony Sira load viral load for viral
load Forloq Timney.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
And that was the second one that he did for
Tiffany Hobbes. There was also this one.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
Now It's time for My Room with Tiffany live on
Campies Leaser with Mooky.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
She'll talk about the.
Speaker 11 (30:27):
Time this on social media, the ral alone with Tiffany Hobbs.
Speaker 5 (30:36):
The man's just bronn.
Speaker 12 (30:37):
You just bring it and weird Al Yankovic should be
asking Eric Lesardo for his autograph.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
Hell serious, yes, hell yes.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
And if you're just tuning in, Eric Losarto blessed us
with another one of his creations. This is now for
each and every time we have something to say about Waymo.
Speaker 10 (31:01):
Mister mo'kelly, he owns a sort.
Speaker 8 (31:09):
This is autonomous vehicles. Might be on the ball, nothing
to all the coons on cleaner tone under control. He
says m kelly is wrong, but no thinks he's on
the payroll for Wamo, Miss Wamo be bad Son you
(31:36):
open WRAMO bed over run be bad, you Ramo be bad.
He's lost.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
I am six forty is later with Kelly We're live
ever ready I heart radio app.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
You're listening to later with Mo Kelly ontomand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
I don't think I.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Ever had to T Mobile, but I did have Sprint
and Mark RONNERD reminded me that they merged or one
bought the other back in the day, so there may
have been some time in which I actually had T
Mobile at one point. The reason why I'm talking about
this is three hundred and fifty million dollars T Mobile
agreed to pay due to a twenty twenty two class
(32:27):
action settlement. And if you're included in the settlement, the
payments are going to start going out next month. And
the class action lawsuit came after a cyber attack back
in August of twenty twenty one. I remember talking about it,
and it compromised a personal data of seventy six million
T Mobile customers. Well, put it this way, if they're
(32:49):
going to divide that three hundred and fifty million across
the seventy six million people, don't expect a lot of money.
I think that's like maybe four dollars in eighty cents
per person, So don't expect a lot the data breach
seemed to have included customers' names, addresses, and social Security numbers.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
Oops.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
Of course, T Mobile denied any wrongdoing in the data breach,
but agreed to the three hundred and fifty million dollars
payout to settle the lawsuit. Mark, do you remember how
long you're with T Mobile? Or you might still be
with T Mobile.
Speaker 12 (33:27):
I'm really slow to change anything like that until something
horribly obnoxious or abusive or catastrophic happens, like the data breach.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Well like I like, I bailed from.
Speaker 12 (33:37):
A Wells Fargo account recently because they were just too awful.
But Sprint and T Mobile, I just stuck with them
over the years, and I don't even remember when I
signed up, but it's been a long time.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
I was on Sprint for the longest.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
When I got on Sprint, they were relatively new and
so they had huge gaps in their service. But I
was there on Sprint if only because they were given
away plan for just about free, you know, free texting
and talk.
Speaker 5 (34:02):
It doesn't work real well, but you won't.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Pay a lot. Well.
Speaker 12 (34:05):
Also, with Sprint, it was really easy to upgrade your iPhones,
and that appealed to me.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Yeah, and we get these carriers for various reasons. And
I went to Sprint leaving Verizon because Verizon had a
practice back then if you did not pay your bill
on the do date, they robocalled you five to six
times a day, plus text messages.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
That is so.
Speaker 12 (34:30):
Obnoxious they had the last I remember because I like
to put things just on automatic and not worry about them.
I'm terrible with administrative stuff, and so the one thing
they made easy, and I don't know if it was
a scammer or not, was if you signed up for
auto pay, your bill was cheaper by a couple bucks.
And so I just did that and never worried about
it again.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
M h.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
You know, but I was at a time in my
life where noo, my money was a little funny, been there,
and so I didn't trust auto pay because there are
some days where I maybe need to wait extra week
or two to pay my mobile bill, and I wanted
to have that ability to not.
Speaker 12 (35:07):
You know, oh, I think everyone in this profession knows
exactly what you're talking OOO.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Yeah, money was a little inconsistent, and I for those
who don't know, I've gone through foreclosure. I know what
it's like to have a due date on a sale
of your house, which will no longer be your house,
So you may be getting some money in the mail.
Don't expect it to be a lot for T Mobile.
If you're a part of that data breach, I feel
(35:32):
like I'm owed more. Oh you probably are. You just
won't get more. Yeah, story in my life, Okay if
I am six forty life everywhere in the iHeartRadio app, we.
Speaker 1 (35:40):

we can tell you just that you need to know.
