Damn MS scammers

Got another call from these phony scammers. Decided to play along with them. When I told him that my tracking showed that their computer was the source of the infections, he hung up.

1. I tell scammers "this call is being monitored for legal purposes:

That works well.

2. I actually told the " F@#% off, I'm not an idiot." after the 6th call. They hung up.

Love it!

Having had quite a few run-ins with these folks over the last few years, I think winding them up is a public service - it may mean they're too stressed or demoralized to make a decent job of scamming the next person.
