RE: A Warning About Telephone Tech Support Scams And How They Tried To Target My Parents

in #psychology8 years ago

One of the local friends received a similar call about their computer being at grave risk. He kept them chatting for quite a while, then told them that he didn't have a computer, but the police should have traced the call by now. Quickest hang up you ever had after that comment.

Lol that is awesome!

His other trick with the over the phone sellers is to ask them to hang on for a moment while he does something that can't wait. Puts the phone down and goes to the toilet. They have gone by the time he gets back.
