Hi All, We've all had them, but this one I had to share.. they're not even trying anymore! *phone rings* Me: Hello? *empty line, so I know it's probably a scam* Hello? Caller: *bad line, said something about Microsoft and computer* Me: Who's calling? Caller: Can I speak to Mr Hall please? [yeah they appear to have a source of phone numbers AND names, not just random numbers] Me: Who's calling? Caller: I am calling from Microsoft, your computer has a virus. Me: Ohh.. you're a scammer and a criminal.. OK.. Caller: I am scammer and criminal? Me: Yes.. glad you agree... Caller: *confused, repeats* I am scammer and criminal.. Me: *trying not to collapse laughing* Your English isn't very good is it? *click* To myself: I'll take that as a no then.. Shame I was having fun with the idiot :) Julian
I'd love to forward one of these calls on to Microsoft themselves and listen to the outcome :-)
