A New one today




Been quiet for a week or two but started again today but I could not be bothered to wind them up today as too busy working.

Apparently some one with an Asian accent said my computer was generating lots of errors and they would fix them for me. So I asked what company he was working for but could not understand the reply.
He told me to open Internet explorer, when I said I did not use it he was flummoxed. I said I use Linux and Firefox so he gave up and I can get back to work.

So remember if you get one of these calls you have a Linux operating system Ubuntu will do if they know any and then they give up.
