Somewhere on this forum I mentioned I had received some strange calls asking to confirm my name and cédula. The first time I picked up and I asked "why are you asking for my cédula number? and they promptly hung up. After that, I was blocking numbers.


Today there is an article about people being reluctant to give their cédula online for the census. I probably should look into what the fine or jail time is for non-compliance. Not paranoid, just indifferent to answering questions and giving my whereabouts when i'm domiciled in Cota.
