Large number of fake requests for a call

    My body of Elders keeps getting requests for someone to call round. When we send one of the pioneers they say nobody in the house actually requested a visit. It was fake. Maybe generated by AI?

    Here is an example letter-

    PLEASE FOLLOW UP

    (The person whose name appears below has shown interest or is deaf.) Please follow up the request when it is possible to do so.

    Name and details redacted

    UNITED KINGDOM

    Male

    English

    Best Contact Time:

    Received from the Internet, not from a publisher. Please exercise appropriate caution.

    ATTENTION: A large number of online requests for visits are received at the branch office. In most cases we have no way to identify which ones are fake. We leave it to the elders’ discretion to decide how to follow up.

    There is no need for the publisher calling on this person to mention the fact that a request has been submitted online. Simply starting a conversation may be all that is needed to see if he or she is “rightly disposed.”—Acts 13:48.

    maybe the lot of us should request a call and when/if the publisher/s show up we can bend their ears a bit...I acually thought of this the other day, but decided the local congregation might would identify me as the person who had a conversation a few months back. I posted about that.

    If you request a call you will get a couple of pioneers calling round
