    I didn't even know what that was, had to look it up....

    Nitric acid (HNO3), also known as aqua fortis (Latin for "strong water") and spirit of niter, is a highly corrosive mineral acid. Nitric acid is the primary reagent used for nitration – the addition of a nitro group, typically to an organic molecule. While some resulting nitro compounds are shock- and thermally-sensitive explosives, a few are stable enough to be used in munitions and demolition, while others are still more stable and used as pigments in inks and dyes.

    Sounds like fun to me :D

    Somehow I got on their call list. 3 calls since Sat. All left voice mails as I don't answer calls that aren't in my contact list. First one concerns medical braces. Caller claims some 'inferior' braces can cause cancer
    and they want to direct me to a 'better' supplier. My 2 calls to their number 205-710-0075 went to voice mail and I haven't heard back.

    The second 2 calls said "your s/s account has been suspended due to criminal activity". Called their number 844-341-3830 twice. First call I got a double beep and nothing else. Second call stated that my call could not be accepted from my phone - which is a dumb flip phone. Said that I should call back from a landline and gave a different number that I didn't catch.

    I have a story ready to mess with them given the chance - should be fun

    I don't know if this is fact or fiction, but I read that sometimes the call backs are forwarded to a 900 number and you can get dinged for a few or more $$$. If they need me, they can call back so I can ignore it again.

    Yeah, I was thinking that the scam companies ask for lists of people whom they shall not call any more. And then call exactly the people on the list
