Some bloke called claiming to be a tech whizz and said my computer had serious issues. I told him there's no way he could see anything through my VPN and a couple of firewalls without breaking the law, and that messing about like that wouldn’t exactly earn him any brownie points from above. I reckoned his soul might be salvageable, but the firm he worked for were probably beyond help. Managed to keep him chatting for nearly half an hour, which meant less time for him to scam someone less prepared.

Received a cheeky call around half past eight this morning, but it abruptly cut off. When I tried ringing back a bit later, I was greeted with a 'number not recognised' announcement. - Caller: Likely played around with caller ID.

I got a rather peculiar call from this number today, alleging that there’s some kind of file on my computer that could bring it to a standstill. I promptly ended the conversation as I had a strong feeling that their next move would involve sneaking into my system, infecting it with a nasty virus, and then extorting me to eliminate it.

I had a rather unpleasant encounter with a woman who had a thick Indian accent and was struggling with her English. She claimed there was a problem with our computer, but I can't help but feel it was a complete scam. I strongly advise against responding to her.
