I’m gonna talk about the phone call which was from a stranger person. I remember this one time when I was at the train station. It was in the afternoon and at around 1pm. I was waiting for my uncle who was coming from abroad. The station was so crowded and around were passing by me. The place was overwhelmingly noisy and no one could hear each other. If I remember correctly, our talk was an advertisement about company and devices. This guy was trying to teach me how to use their website and buy things from it. He said our company is new and located in the city center. You can get 20% discount for any device. Also, they have delivery and returning services. I think he told me almost all information which was related to their company. As I mentioned, I was in an unexpected situation. The trains were coming and going simultaneously. Also, people were shouting and running. It was so noisy and unattainable to talk with someone. When he started talking, I said to him, Bro, I can talk with you. Maybe you should call back a few hours later but he didn’t stop. After this, I was a bit stressed and I said shut up and pressed the red button. After a few days later, I thought about my situation and decided to never reply unknown numbers.

I'm going to talk about a phone call I received from a stranger. I remember this one time when I was at the train station. It was in the afternoon, around 1 PM. I was waiting for my uncle, who was coming from abroad. The station was so crowded, and people were passing by me. The place was overwhelmingly noisy, and no one could hear each other. If I remember correctly, our conversation was an advertisement about a company and its devices. This guy was trying to teach me how to use their website and buy things from it. He said their company is new and located in the city center. You can get a 20% discount on any device. Also, they have delivery and return services. I think he told me almost all the information related to their company. As I mentioned, I was in an unexpected situation. The trains were coming and going simultaneously. People were shouting and running. It was so noisy that it was difficult to talk with someone. When he started talking, I said to him, 'Bro, I can’t talk with you. Maybe you should call back a few hours later,' but he didn't stop. After that, I was a bit stressed, and I said, 'Shut up,' and pressed the red button. A few days later, I thought about my situation and decided to never reply to unknown numbers.
