Fake 'Microsoft' callers

[Coke Robot]

I usually get one or two a day but I'd had two by 11am today.

This is the way I normally deal with them (see attached wav).

I got bored winding them up, leading them down blind alleys a couple of weeks ago.
So I answered the phone "Surrey police IT support I will ....."
That is as far as I got. Their phone hung up so quickly I couldn't even finish my sentence
I have not had a call since, I think I am getting withdrawal systems.

It's been ages since I've had one too. Sometimes you're just in the mood to play.

They ask you to press the Microsoft key, I say I have 4 computers and I'll turn them all on at the same time because I don't know what Operating Systems are on each one. The first one I say there is no start button just an Apple in the top right corner, the second I say there is an f in the top right corner, the third a circle. When I finally get to the Windows computer I say there is just an e with an i wrapped around it (Windows 8) and then they say press the key. I say which one the flag key. They say go to Event Viewer I count all the errors and warnings knowing full well that they aren't viruses or "infections" as they say. They then say go to the website and I say all the Internet browser errors I can think of. Then I finally go to the website and say can I pay now. Then when they say do you have a credit card. I say no and they get pissed off

Or Method 2 I just say "what is a computer" and then I say "I don't have one of those" lol

I don't get those here in the USA but I still get amused by the lack of creativity in some of the spam e-mails I get:

- I am a foreigner
- The government is corrupt
- I have milllions of dollars in a bank account
- The money was meant for someone or belonged to someone (often a government official) who died in (pick one) (1) a car crash (2) a plane crash
- There is nobody left to claim the money
- All I need is for you to contact me and help me get the money into a US bank account
- In return for your help I will give you a cut of the funds

"We're giving away Samsung Galaxy 3 and we're giving you $100 so would you like one?" "That phone is crappy as your mother" "Sorry I guess you like iPhone we also have a same deal for iPhone 4S but we are giving you $120 because its outd.." "Oh iPhone is crappy just like your grandmother."Hungs up Note that I don't hate Samsung Galaxy or iPhone and I'm about to switch to Samsung Galaxy. I've been recieving that exact same call for 3 times and I got pissed off They never phoned me again.

You should tell them that you want a Windows Phone, they probably don't even think that exists!

My aunt was called by them and they told her that her PC had a virus... so she showed them... She ran out and bought a new PC and threw the "old" one out... Unbelievable...
