I would just say "Oh my god, how could that happen. What can I do to fix it? Wait let me grab my credit card, SSN, address and mother's maiden name for you so you can fix it!!!"

I love talking to the Nigerian scammers via email. I get them so excited. Act like I'm the dumbest fuck on the planet. I love when they are at the western union awaiting cash. Craigslist too apartment scams i actually call them. I once had a scam artist tell me he was going to call the police on me.

They called me twice this week. Every time I tell him to take me off their list and the guy starts cursing at me. I swear to god if that fuck calls me again I'm going to go "Taken" on his ass. I also had another scam company called Komodo call a few times about our business ID license.

These people are relentless. I used to get literally 12-13 bs calls a day. They're the reason I disconnected my home telephone line. Things are so much better now.  |

My wife answered when they called about two weeks ago and I'd known this scam for a long time. I asked who it was and she said "Microsoft says there's something wrong with the computer." I said "Tell the we have a Mac." She did and they hung up right away.

How are they getting your phone #s? Do you people still have land lines?

LOL
Our defense is simple: we never use our landline since we have cellphones. We never give the number either, hell I don't even know the number.
So if the phone rings, it's a scam or a doosh trying to sell something.

I got two calls about problems with my computer yesterday. First call told him not to call this number again. Second call (same person) asked him if his mother knew he was a thief and an idiot and to GFY. Phone (land line) has been quiet today.
