I had two of these calls within 2 hours of each other... both with Indian accents.. " Dave from windows" and "Steve calling from the technical department" both claiming that their internet reports that my computer has technical problems when accessing the internet and has files that need to be removed.Just to let the list know. I live in Holsworthy and today I had a call about my computer having problems!! I was ready to have some fun with it, but unfortunately the caller's accent and English were so bad I decided not to bother. (It was an overseas call.) Anyway, it seems that it is still going on. Incidentally I am ex directory, so they are obviously using a program to work its way through all the numbers. Hopefully next time the caller will be easier to understand, Regards Neil
I toyed with the first one.. even transferring the call to my wife who told them that we didn't have any problems as we used Linux and hung up - he was still insisting we had a problem even after being told we use Linux!
The second one .. well I just waited for him to finish speaking and launched a foul mouthed tirade... he hung up!
I'm ex-directory and have been for well over 10 years so I guess they may be calling blocks of numbers.
I'm looking forward to the next call..... Dave. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
