I just had a call from a feller with a strange accent, I dubbed him a Nigerian. When I answered the pho, he didn't call me by name, did not identify himself or where he was calling from... just called me "Ma'am". He said he was calling me about my computer. I asked him to repeat that and he did and asked, "You DO have a computer, don't you?" I said I did, but why did it concern him? He started a song and dance about when I get on the computer it's sending signals out all over the world... did I know that? I sez, "SO"? And he came back with I could be picking up viruses, dangerous ones that could ruin my computer, & other malware that could cause it to crash.
I asked, "& you want me to do what?" He said for me to go in and get on my computer and let him check it out..... And that's as far as I let him get. I sez, "You must take me for some kind of a damn fool... I don't know you from Adam, and you want me to go in and get hooked up with you on the computer? I don't think so! I don't know what you have up your skinny little sleeve, but I seriously doubt it's to help ME, so you go peddle your crappy talk some place else, and don't you bother me again, do you understand?" There was dead silence and I hung up.
Anyone else got this kind of a goofy call? gg janelle
