1233922 2011-09-27 22:13:00 Please ask your son why?
I really want to know what makes people do this.

It's called an ID-10-T error.

1233923 2011-09-27 22:52:00 Gee how old is your son ?

This scam has been on the radio and forums etc fro the last 6 months.

But yes may be a System restore is the best option.

I don't really think there is much they can do. At one point not to long ago they were talking about changing up the privacy laws, but i have no idea how long that could take.

I think that there was a warning about these scams on TV too, so they know but can't really do much as far as I know

1233928 2011-09-28 08:25:00 If you waste their time by deliberately misunderstanding them you get a good laugh, so it's not all bad! Agent_24 (57)
1233929 2011-09-28 08:39:00 If you waste their time by deliberately misunderstanding them you get a good laugh, so it's not all bad!I got a call two nights ago. This time I told the woman excitedly that I too work for Microsoft Windows and isn't that a great co-incidence. Maybe I have even seen her in the corridor! Which room was she in and what was her extension - maybe I could give her a call tomorrow to meet up for lunch!!

Unfortunately that tactic did not work and she barrelled on with barely a hesitation. :rolleyes:
