Re: [LUG] Slightly OT: Scam Calls (from Twitter)

 

I've received a few calls myself last month. I have previously managed
to convince them that I fell for the scam, so they have me listed as
guillible or something. (For 'me', read the false name I had given them
two years ago.)

They kept using the same script and they told me to "please sit on your
computer, sir".

I then managed to convince them that I didn't have a credit card and,
promising to get a pre-paid card from the post-office, convinced them to
"fix" my computer for free.

Martijn.
