| | I received a call from a man claiming to be from IRS informing me that I was being sued and that I needed to act soon. His accent was so strange, I could barely understand what he was saying. I hung up. |

| | The Hindi Lady Claiming to be from Microsoft calling with a 13.5 hour difference and with a 310 area code number.
She could not provide an IP address to which she was allegedly using to associate a phone number with me.
I spoke to her in her Hindi Language, (Kaise Ho? -> How are you? --- Gyow-wah? -> What do you want?...
She asked if I was drunk.. I asked if SHE was DRUNK if she expected me to turn over control of my computer to her or to log on to any site she'd suggest.
She's a polite irritant who should GET A REAL JOB and not try scamming us.
When such people are caught, the use of Pruning Sheers on one of their fingers each time they violate our privacy so that after 10 times they are dialing the Telephone like Mr. Ed (The Horse)... with a pencil in their teeth to press the phone number... On the next violation, ya' sew up their mouths so they have to place the pencil in their nose to dial...
>>> Just a humble suggestion for these "Pain in the Nitamb" people. |
