Having fun with the usual phone call hackers. New tactic for this morning, instead of spinning them into a froth, I am seeing how long they will stay on the phone. so far two 17 minute sessions before there hack into whatever conference service is that cuts them off and says "you have been kicked from this conference".
Unfortunately I don't know where they are getting their information to start, but the last time they called, they asked if I was xxx and used my sons name. he surfs just abut as randomly as possible in finding the stuff he likes. Generally on an IPAD and a POS Vista machine with nothing on it beyond VLC and chrome.
They wanted me to use some site with a country code of.tk Points to a web site with some downloads, probably to take over your machine or other purpose for their use. So now the idiot politicians still want to give away control of the internet. At least the scammers would protect their own self interests.
