English so poor I told the lady I could not understand a word she was saying and hung up. We need to get more people to simply HANG UP or tell em where to go then hang up. However I know quite a few people who use windows , and describe it as slow etc. So its no wonder they fall for these scams, if they say something like " you have a virus which makes your system slow," People would fall for it. I had 3 in one day and 3rd time they were told to p*** off, i could hear something about not needing to use that sort of language, I can think of another word beginning with p. as they are from india but anyway, It stopped em for a while.
