I get lots of calls from the microsoft people. I love to interrupt their spiel with comments such as: How's the weather where you are? You have a lovely name or earrings. Anything to throw them off.
When we get to the part of pushing the ms key and a letter key I pretend to do that and they want to know if a box comes up. I say yes. Then I tell them the box says WARNING someone is trying to break into your computer! They are usually stunned and don't know what to say.
Sometimes I say some idiot or some bad word just to make it personal for them. The last lady I talked to a couple of days ago told me I was sick and needed to see a doctor then she hung up on me!
I figure I am just doing a good deed by keeping them from making calls while wasting their time with me!
I really need to get a life!
The seniors I know (and I am one) are no more gullible that the general population. We have computers and know how to use them!
