Anyone Else Getting This Tech Support Scam?

[Kennydale]

I miss the Nigerian Prince trying to get his money out of Africa Scam ( I used to have fun with those people)

[ACP230]

I got it a few months ago.

"Not interested and you are a scam!"
"No we are not!" (in a heavy Indian accent.)

We actually got one of those calls about two months ago. It came in on the cell phone of one of my minions in our NOC (Network Operations Center). Just imagine one of these frauds calling into a room full of nerds that watch screens for intrusions and alerts 24/7.

I actually had two guys tip over chairs, running and yelling "Put him on speaker!" The guy's Engrish was so bad, he was asking us what "vendors" we were running. Blank looks all around.

Then he explained - "You know - Vendors XP, Vendors 7, Vendors 10...."

[GOTURBACK]

Yes at first I just hung up now if I am in the mood and have the time I really f with them the last time it ended with the guy telling me f u after I unleashed on him after about 5-10 minutes.

Yup. The latest call was while I was on my way to a precision rifle match and my response almost made my buddy crash the truck:

Vijay: "Hello I am calling about the virus on your Windows computer"

Me: "Do you have a pencil?"

Vijay: "Yes I have a pencil"

Me: "Listen carefully. I want you to shove the pencil up your ass"

Vijay: "..."

Me: "Is the pencil in your ass?"

Vijay: "Yes?"

Damn.

If it's an unknown number I always answer "Det. BBI, Homicide & Robbery" It's cut down greatly on repeat spam/scam calls.

One chick didn't pay attention or the line clicked over from the robo-dialer too late to hear it and she asked me if I had a security system. "Well, there's two armed deputies by the metal detector at the front door. Does that count?"

[GAP]

I have, and I've responded with my best Indian accent. The guy said, "I cannot understand you."
