I got the call a while back. He said I owed them some amount of money. I asked him if he was sure and he said yes. I told him thank God, I thought I owed like twice that amount. He got real quiet and came back with something to the effect that he was cutting me a deal for today only

If they are someone actually important they’d leave a voicemail.

I had some indian bitch call me awhile back and told me that they had to update windows on my computer because of serious threats to my computer and that they needed some information before they can update my computer.

I asked was asking her questions and I could tell she was getting annoyed. She was just like "i understand sir, but if you get me the information we can take care of everything".

Then I said "You know what? I know you lying bitch! I use iOS you dirty slut! What you got to say now?" She hung up.

So my dad received one of these calls about 3 years ago...

(Multi-tour Vietnam Vet, retired 39 yrs with Maw Bell, Bell South, & AT&T as a ditch digger, troubleshooter, line tech...)

He receives this call for my brother, who's ironically on tour in UAE extracting and relocating troops and equipment flying C-130 Herc., when Russia took a hit...

Within 30 min's, Dad traced the router to Seattle Washington inside a long term leased Hotel room. He kept the guy's on the phone for days, at least 6 hour's per day renegotiating tax burden, etc... Had the FBI two way call, record, gave exact coordinates of where router was relaying masking international call center...

FBI field investigator's said unfortunately there is nothing we can do, even with US hotel location... FBI? Why would you waste this much time, and are hell bent on making these guy's waste so much time? Dad "well, the more time they waste on me, the more likely they will not get to a naive person..." Dad also noticed, many of their names changing, voices changing... He also told the FBI they were likely getting heads cut off, wasting so much time trying to get his money. Ironically the FBI at the time was busy with more important things.
Also supposedly traced router from hotel in Seattle to Yemen??

For the particular call about the Microsoft Hack... Dad led them on masterfully (still doesn't have a computer in the house BTW!) When instructed to turn off computer to retrieve code, reboot computer, (cause he couldn't turn off)... Dad puts down phone, starts beating pots and pans, cursing up a storm; comes back to the phone Huffing & Puffing, explaining that he can't get the cord unplugged from the wall, and everything is smoking!

Reminds me about the mid-90's ADT phone solicitor selling home alarm packages... I listened as a teenager to about 4 min's of his questions, concerns,... "So, are you ready to turn the house into Fort Knox? Sorry Sir, but I've never actually seen or touched a key for my house!

I miss such a simple life.
Come and Take it!

Sorry for shittily organizing my first post! and edited three times

I really love that scammers/solicitations with live people have made a mini comeback recently after all going to robo calls for a while.

Most of the time I have better shite to do or am at work, but that one time every few months when one calls you and you’re sitting drinking a beer and have nothing else to do is worth it.

I kept some healthcare scammer on the line for about 15 minutes last year and he called me a cocksucker and hung up and I couldn’t stop smiling for days

Had a similar situation not long ago. I kept calling them back even after they started hanging up on me, asking them why they try to scam people out of money and wanting to know what their real name was and where they were located. They got really irritated it was great.

used to do that shite also. I would play along, do the ooo shite I do not want to be in trouble with the IRS, just milk them right down to the moment where it is time to pay. Then go off, some hang up, some argue. I throw out my 4 deployments and I killed his cousins and buried them in pig guts. Ohhh lord, they really go ballistic then! I would hang up and had 2 allah motherfrickers call me back cussing me!
But found this out. Be careful, some of those ffricks would call local law enforcement and report you for Domestic Violence. The local law has to respond. Walk easy baw!

If I did get a call like this, I could imagine doing my best Mr. Herbert from Family Guy accent and telling him that I couldn't send him the money, but that if he'd like he could come down to my basement where I keep lots of money and popsicles.
