twice a month at my house:”microsoft windows here - we have detected a problem with your computer”
can barely understand them, the english is so bad
the long-distance switching and call-center pass off is so obvious
i tell ‘em I’m running Ubuntu - clueless
FYI—They have taken many of my elderly clients for money to the tune of at $600.00, in one case.. luckily they used a credit card, not a debit, and I was able to help them contact the CC company and get a refund...

I love it when I get those calls. It’s so much fun to goof on them, say I’m doing all the things they tell me to, keep them on the phone for 10 or 15 minutes. At some point they ask, “What do you see on the screen now?” I say, “I see the virgin Mary.” One guy screamed, “You see DA WIRGIN MARY?!?” I GUESS I scared him; he hung uP.

Have we fallen so low that we even outsource our crime to India?
