I wonder if this involves those polite Indian gentlemen who call every week to offer Windows technical support.

no these guys are different.

I was sent to their trap by a fake Amazon Technical support web site.

I finally figured out it was a scam

I had a group of Jamaicans calling me up to twice a day for weeks telling me I had a virus and they were there to fix it.

I hung up on them over and over. Finally, I had some free time and played around with them for over an hour. I was driving and didn’t even have my computer with me. I just kept making up reasons why they couldn’t access my computer.

After an hour, a third guy came on the phone and we went round and round again. He was getting angry and started saying “Why are you wasting my time?” over and over again.

I let him have it with every cuss word I could think of and told him that they had been wasting my time for weeks. And that I would track him down and “gut him like a fish” if they ever called back.

Surprisingly, they never called again.

Oh, you get those ridiculous calls too?
I sometimes have a lot of fun with those idiots
by stringing them along for a half an hour or so.
