    • I was wondering about that when I was putting it together, but I thought maybe the people had seen the stories on facebook. Sorry for that Indexer, you did great though.

    • Thank you Carol, you did well. That rescue story hit the news feed as a rescue dog saves lives from above the 100 floor. It was a real story that was embellished. I found the correct story and they should of just ran it as the truth, it was fantastic enough.

    • I did well. lol , so did you! Some of these were fake stories originally, but I found the real stories behind the pictures and articles. This was a fun one to make. Thanks Norman.

  19. got 15, a couple knowing you were dead give aways. A couple I missed but that was wishful thinking.

    Awesome quiz!

    Now add to the scams..

    1. Central Windows or Windows Technical support calling you – can you imagine how many computers it would take to capture the errors from 1 billion computers around the world, sort that information and find the errors from just your PC?
    2. The IRS is calling to collect money – they don’t by the way call.
