Funny phone call: fastsupport.com Indian scammers
Got a call this morning at 7am. Hackers are logging into my email. Oh no! :eek:
Hackers from ... Ohio? :laugh: Abbreviated humorous version of conversation: Her: "Please sir, sit at your computer." Me: (sits at Linux desktop) :P Her: "Tell me when that's done." Me: "Yep." Her: "Do you see the CTRL key on the lower right of the keyboard?" Me: "Yep." Her: "What do you see on the key next to it." Me: "A flag." Her: "...? You mean a Windows key?" Me: "Nope. I see a flag." Her: "Sir, let me pass you to my supervisor since your issue seems complex." :laugh: Him: "Sir, press the flag key + R. What do you see." Me: "Application Finder." Him: "...? Sir, you didn't press the right keys. Try this, open Mozilla Firefore or Google Chrome." Me: "Do what now?" :question: :P Him: "Open your web browser, and type dub-vu dub-vu dub-vu dot faaspot dot com into search. What do you see?" Me: "Don't you know?" :laugh: Him: "Sir, just please type it, and let me know what you see." Me: "Well, all righty." ... and then I proceed to type it into the CNN.com search :wink2: ... "No documents found." Him: "Sir, it appears the hackers are now in your system, we must act fast. Do you know what a firewall is?" Me: "Nope." Him: blah blah blah "... and then you'll be fixed to prevent the hackers." Me: "That sounds like too much work, and I don't want to do that. I'll just turn off the computer so they can't get in no more." :laugh: Him: "Sir, that will not work. When you turn it on again, the hackers will come back." Me: "Well then, I'll just use it late at night, when the hackers are asleep." :laugh::laugh: (I almost lost it here.) Him: Raises voice... "Sir... no... that... we must reinitialize your firewall now. Otherwise they may get into your system and hack it, or shut it down." Me: "Is that all? I'll fix their wagon right now." <quick pause> "Alright, there. I yanked the electric plug out of the wall, and it shut down without saving their work. That'll teach the bastards not to mess with me." :laugh::laugh::laugh: (I almost lost it again.) Him: "Sir ... ??? ... <sigh> ... good luck sir." <click> |
I have had them yell and tell me I'm stupid when I act clueless and take up their time. :laugh::laugh: I like to waste their time if I'm not busy.
.....At which computer should I sit? .....Windows? None of them are by the windows .....Oh no! It's not on, it will take a while to come on. ......Its on now, but my internet is real slow ......I couldnt understand you, can you spell it etc. |
