Would You Believe the Chinese Consulate Called me?

I wouldn't. But I looked up the number and what did I find? http://newyork.china-consulate.org/eng/jysw/t1345841.htm

Spoof? Or even the Chinese government is running scams?

I believe it. My caller ID said they called on Saturday. Left a voicemail in chinese. Figured it was a scam like the IRS has an arrest warrant for me, or my PC been sending error messages to microsoft. Deleted it. Hope it wasn't an invite to a Chinese New Years Party with the NOPI gals.

THey're just angry that we're dissing some of their stuff here on ES.
