1437180 2017-07-14 08:54:00 Ha ha! Just had a call from one of those stupid scammers! Strung him along for a couple of minutes.... said I would turn my computer on, so I made as if I was doing that, he said there was something wrong and that he could fix it because he was from Windows support...... yeah right!
Told me to click on here there and everywhere. (Me trying to stifle laughing).
I said to him, are you quite sure, and he said yes, there is something wrong with your Windows on your computer. That's when I told him that I have an Apple, and told him to bugger off, that I knew he was a scammer! And he said "No, you are"! Ha ha. Can't wait for him to phone back.........!

1437186 2017-07-15 08:06:00 Scammers rang me the other week. First time he called he didn't answer. So I hung up. A few hrs later the same guy called

Took a while for him to answer. As soon as I heard there's a prob with Windows / your email, I hung up.

I knew there was nothing wrong with it anyway. I had just finished doing a clean install on this

1437187 2017-07-15 11:07:00 They ring up and don't answer, hangup etc., if they can't get you through to a live con man, otherwise you go on short rotation. Laggard (17509)
1437188 2017-07-16 23:39:00 The whistle by the phone seems to work (or at least give me satisfaction):annoyed: Arnie (6624)
1437189 2017-07-17 06:13:00 We haven't had any such calls, I feel that we are missing out :annoyed: However, we have lots of emails about our account that has a specific amount (approx $4000+ dollars) that is going to be locked ..... we just need to .... Even putting them into the SPAM folder doesn't always work. Misty (368)
