Got another question to ask any of you knowledgable folks, concerning research

[the ringo kid]

You all have been nice in helping me get some great info concerning a Visa and such. This is unrelated to both that and my pen pal friend who ive already asked this of and has no idea how to do but, can anyone here research an address in Spain? Id like to look for one to see if it is correct and would like to PM it to a member here if they can research it for me? I don't know if I have the exact correct info or not?

Have you tried Google Maps?

I’d just google the address and see what you get. If you get what you are looking for — e.g., “Home of Eduardo Ortiz, the Spanish Elvis” — you’re in business.

Zoom in on the address. Drag the little blue man above the zoom +/- bar and the streets will turn blue. Drop the little man onto the blue line in front of the house and you can see a camera image. Using the arrow buttons, you can even drive up and down the street

I have but, it gives me only a partial address at best. I also tried google street images, only I cannot seem to control the think like I once could. I hate how they update things and make it harder for tech-challenged folk like me. Sorry for the run on.

I tried that but, only got a partial. I think something is misspelled or a number might be slightly off? Im looking for a specific address which I think is residential? but I seem to have misplaced it or left it at home. On arrival tomorrow-ill post it. Its not mt friends addy, but something else im trying to figure out.

Also, I have a phone number that is here, and cant seem to locate what State this area code is in? its 605. Ive been getting loads of robo calls from it including this number 605- 626-5457, and id like to find out what State its coming from and do some research on it as well. This 605 number is a scam-they called even from some hospitals emergency room trying to sell me an extended warranty for my car.....

I tried, but it aint happening. I try to zoom in and out too-but no luck. My page keeps reloading for some reason? and then I lose it all and have to start over again.

Just got another one telling me my cars extended warranty was about to expire and is using a 361 Texas area code. Their number is 361- 291-3189. And at least it wasnt ""timothy churchill""" this time!

605 area code is the entire state of South Dakota. I just asked Google, and that's what he (she?) said.

The scammers are now able to use any phone number they find to show up on Caller ID. May there be a special place in Hades for all of them.

Thank you and that helps bunches. That brings another question, doing a number search on google using that area code-at least when I tried it a few days ago? said it was Jersey City, N.J. Is there a way to manipulate a false location for area codes?

Thank you and I wholeheartedly agree.

Yes, the scammers can call from anywhere.
Remember I posted about a call from a NM town I didn’t recognize?
When I looked it up, its a Small Town in West NM on the Navajo Reservation.
And not far from Black Rock.
They should have used Black Rock.
Then I would have answered and asked, Having a Bad Day in Black Rock?

Heh heh, I love that wouldabeen reply. Ive used several myself when a live being is on one of those extended car warranty calls. Cant post one of my favorites here though but, it always ends in a "beep."
