I wish I could have some of those calls, I love trolling telemarketers so this wouldn't be that different right?

Telemarketers aren't scammers. They may be annoying, but what they do is perfectly legal (advertising over the phone).

They are apparently calling people all over the globe, pretty impressive really. I knew it was a scam when they called me a couple of months ago, managed to confuse the guy asking which one of my computers was infected and the OS ect. Since he apparently had the magic skill of knowing that my (only?) computer had viruses, I figured he should know that.
Then I got bored and pretty much hung up on him.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

So do I. I often get people calling me, then telling me they're from Bell canada or something and tell me that they'll have a machine call me, give me a number and that I should give them the number the machine gave me... Which is funny because the recorded message with the number clearly says that a Bell Canada employee will never ask for that number.

I wonder if this is the same "company" that called me...

I had a similar experience with a guy who was calling from "The Microsoft Security Center" and that I had a virus on my PC.

Due to the fact that there are like 10pcs in my house, I was instantly suspicious... I played along with the guy for about 30 seconds until he told me to go to some website (I forget the name) and download something... at this point I said "Ok guy, I've got a good antivirus, and youre clearly running some scam, so plz dont call me again with your shit".

And the guy FLIPPED OUT.

He went on saying stuff like (and I'm not exaggerating at all) "You little fucker, who the fuck do you think you are calling this a scam! I'm gonna come to your house and kill you!"

I was laughing about it, telling the guy to calm down, and that his supervisor probly wouldnt appreciate him trying to kill me, but he kept throwing his death-threats at me, and eventually hung up.

After I called the cops (this guy was clearly insane) and some officers from the communications department came by and took a statement.

Anyways, thats my story about probly the same guys the op is talking about, I'd say judging by that, this is all a big scam and can easily be ignored =P


They get so MAD sometimes, its weird its almost like they believe in it.... Even faced with people who can easily dispute it they will argue that its not a scam rather than just hang up and move onto the next victim...

Actually the program itself is not illegal. Dell uses this program when you call for technical assistance. They ask your permission to download this program and then explains what it does. You can see the direct control program being used when the mouse pointer on your screen is moving without your control. This program is used through network so if you get paranoid, you can just quickly take control over your mouse and disconnect the internet or uninstall the program.

Ah, I got a call from what sounded like an Indian speaking broken English. I followed him for a while, untile he wanted me to grant him remote access. When I refused, he argrued "don't you want to get rid of your infections." And I replied, "no, I sort of like my infections." He said "what?" in a very surpized tone, then said he didn't understand, and wanted me to repeat myself. I agian said, "I sort of like my infections . . . I've gotten used to them, and I sort of like them now." He sounded disgusted at the notion that I liked being infected, and said, "I don't want to talk to you." I said, "OK, bye." Total time: 9:54, almost 10 mintues. Not bad.

Well, these guys are scammers, as they do NOT explain what they are doing, and they intrude into your computer, they don't fix anything.

ROFL, I watch seinfield and I don't think I have seen that episode lmao. I never get those calls though, would be so fun to mess with them though if I did .

I would go into a freak out mode "Wait my computer is infected? What do I do?" and just act like I believed it. Ah how fun that would be
When I think of something else, something will go here
