-- an automatic red flag
Unfortunately for us, the red flag among many hearing businesses
is the word "deaf." A hearing businessman said many businesses
are trained and better informed to deal with fake TTY calls,
fake relay calls and fake text messages that mention this
"deaf" word. One businessman said he gets many fake messages,
and instead of hanging up, he would play conversational games,
and these scammers would go away (but look for another victims).
-- police laugh off a house raid
In a small British town, the police raided the house of a
deaf person, thinking a crime was taking place there.
It was the wrong house. The police did not apologize to
the deaf owner. In fact, they laughed it off. The
humor among these police officers only made the
deaf owner very angry about it.
