Surely I am not the only one who messes with the scammers when they call!

Had a clearly Indian gentleman call me and said my computer was sending error messages to Microsoft. I asked which one, because I had 4 on at that moment. We went round and round for a half hour before they finally gave up.

Oh I love the computer scammers!!! I normally start by telling them I am so glad they called because my internet is going so slow.

He kept feeding me instructions on how to jailbreak my computer for him, I just sat in my office tapping on the keyboard like I really was doing it.

They called my dad about a year ago and he fell for it hook line and sinker.He isn't very tech savvy, a few days later he was telling me about them moving his icons around for him and giving him a new password with a free virus protection plan. They charged him $149.99 for an empty icon, and I had to reset everything on their PC and call their bank to cancel payment. They tried to take the money out again a few days later but it was flagged and stopped by the fraud department. SMH

Scammers got my Mom to write checks for over $25000 dollars claiming IRS fines and some bogus charity. Our financial people caught on to it, and returned all the money paid out plus stopped payment on all unaccounted checks. They were relentless, and basically put Mom into a catatonic state. I found out earlier this fall that the Depth. Of Justice did a international raid and took out a bunch of these jerks in the US, Caribbean and India. I feel vindicated by that.

My dad's a working retiree and somehow his digits got hacked from his work place computer. Someone filed his tax return a couple weeks before he did and got his refund. He was kicking himself in the ass about it, but I let him know that his employer needs a better security system. Anyway the IRS sent him a replacement check after a few months and he got an extra 15 cents interest.

I even do it in character. My record is 30 minutes for a new computer that was supposed to be paid for by the US government.

Pretty sure I'm now used as a training example in some scam Indian call center. I even got their supervisor thinking I was all for it.

When it's a woman calling, I stop her at the beginning and ask what color panties she is wearing. She called me. If she wants to talk, we'll talk about what I want to talk about.

What if she says to you I'm not wearing any ;-) lol
