Classic British Flight Sim

Wish you had recorded those Chris, would have had me chuckling.

My favourite cold caller sting is this one, I think I linked it some years ago but still find it amusing:

I don't believe it!!!! Just had another call today this time from Amazon Prime informing that they wanted to credit our card with £500. Yeah, right. Thank you Allan for writing about this in your post!

Nigel.

My pleasure Nigel, just don't forget my 10% for 'Advice provided'.

I will PM you with the details of my Swiss bank account shortly.

YouTube has tons of videos of folks with lots of time on their hands that like to play with the scammers, a lot are very cleverly done and a few turn tables on the scammer and upload a computer crashing virus script to the scammers computer. One via a folder on the desktop labeled 'Wells Fargo Bank'

A few weeks ago, I had 15 calls in a two hour period from a recorded voice stating there was a problem with my Apple i-cloud account. Press 1 to talk to a technician or call a toll free number (which was not toll free). I finally pressed one and told the "tech" I had no Apple devices except an ipod. "Ah", he said, "that must be the problem. Do you have a computer? OK go to your computer and we an fix your ipod. " Whereupon, I told him I was not born yesterday and he would be reported to the FTC, cursed at him and hung up. Then I found a way to block the number from my Verizon call log and that was the end of that pest. A Google look-up of the number revealed many reports of this particular scam so that is a good check if someone suspicious calls.
