Gosh you are so lucky. Have you quit your job yet?

The scam I keep getting asked to fall for is over the telephone, claiming to want to give me a business loan. Always some guy from India, based on the accent. Yeah, I'm going to give them my bank account information so they can wire in $100,000 grand.

A few months back one of them called me and I decided that I was going to make him hang up on me. I kept telling him, politely, that I had no plans for expansion and did not want to borrow money. This guy tried every angle and I repeated the same answer several times. Finally he blew up at me and described sexual acts that I should be doing that only a sick homophobe would imagine. My reply was a heart-felt, sincere, belly laugh. hat got him so mad that he must have sold my phone number to his competitors, since I've received numerous similar solicitations since then.
 
I've been getting a lot of phishing scam emails lately that claim to be from a couple of credit card companies I have accounts with. They claim that they have information which suggests my account has been the target of hackers who've made several unsuccessful log in attempts, and that my account may or will be suspended unless I click on a link to "verify" my account info.

I just forward them to the real company's scam investigation dept so they can examine and possibly learn more about who is sending them and from where.

I keep getting the one where they say there from Microsoft and they to remove viruses from my computer.
They want access to my computer to do this and my card #, so they can be paid for removing the viruses.

They always seem to hang up, when I ask them questions. :D
Like:
How is that possible, when I don't own a computer?
etc.

The other one is where they want to help me "fix" my credit card debt.
They seem to lose the "connection", when I tell them I don't have any credit cards. :D
 
I get calls a lot too from 'Steve from Microsoft service'. It's always an Indian guy and the caller ID always shows 000-000-0000. Last month I told him my caller ID was screwed up and asked him where he was calling from. He said Tampa so I asked him how he likes living in Alabama...he said he liked it a lot.

Steve and I are good buddies. A few weeks ago he called when I was logged into Linux and claimed he was getting 'real time virus alerts' from my Microsoft operating system.

But Steve's rude; because when I told him that I had read on the Microsoft web site that he calls were scams, he just hung up on me.

Steve likes to feel useful, you have to play dumb with him so he'll spend A LOT of time trying to help you give him remote access.

I should start recording my chats with Steve, some of them have been hilarious.

Normally I don't have the time or the desire to humor myself, by playing them; but one of these times, they're going to catch me at just the right time and I'm going to see how long I can keep them "on the line". :D
