1171097 2011-01-19 21:28:00 At least She did! :clap

A very nice Indian lady kindly called to tell me my computer was infected with a virus. Sadly she was not made of the stuff that true con-artists are, and after a half-hearted attempt to convince me (and I was being very nice to her) she simply hung up in my ear.

I am beside myself with grief at the brevity of our acquaintance, but consoled by the realisation and reassurance that I have not been cast aside.

There is still hope..........and the pills..

Cheers

1171098 2011-01-19 21:30:00 That happened to me, the lady hung up on me. Maybe it's the women that just give up too easy? Chilling_Silence (9)
1171099 2011-01-19 22:19:00 Noooo. They're professional con artists and can smell an amateur con artist preparing to set them up....why waste the time? Scouse (83)
1171100 2011-01-19 23:22:00 How disappointing. My one and only call was obviously a script reader and couldn't get past it and have a proper discussion and gave up after a very short time.
Bummer, no fun.

Billy T, why do you get all the excitement. I've been waiting in anticip ...
ation and the uplifting only a frisson resulting from such a call can bring.

But to no avail. They don't call me. Never. Ever.

I have been cast aside.

1171105 2011-01-20 00:55:00 I too sit waiting by the phone everyday, I am so much in anticipation of getting a call that I got myself out of work on ACC just so I could be with the phone 24/7. After all I would hate to be out and miss the call gary67 (56)
1171106 2011-01-20 01:19:00 SWMBO and I have had at least three calls.

1. I walked into the room whilst SWMBO was listening patiently, and I could tell from her responses that she was getting one of these calls. Frantic sign language to suggest she tell them to get lost, but she was more polite than me, and gently let them down (in an assertive way).

2. I got the next one. Halfway through the Indian guy's opening spiel, I gave him two words (the second was 'orf') and hung up on him.

3. SWMBO got the third one. She was less polite this time - "I DO NOT WANT TO TALK TO YOU' and she then hung up on him.

Clearly we aren't interested in stringing them along.
