A random person called my phone. This person was talking about Sir! Sir!. You have some documents on your PC. They're making your PC misbehave and they're going to steal your information. Sir! I am Microsoft support. You have some malware on your PC and let me help you remove it as if I'm just some clueless ass 40-year old who know shit about PC, the internet, and random scams on the internet that only old people fall for if we're being honest. I hung right up in his face and told him I'm not dumb. Have a good day. He called back and said, sir. Why you hang up? I hung up again. This was my first time experiencing this Lol. I heard all the stereotypical jokes about the Indian tech support scammers and shit but damn. I never experienced one. It was pretty damn funny seeing him talk to me as if I'm just some old ass man who got my first laptop and doesn't know how to use it. It opened up my eyes TBH. I see why my parents don't use the internet and store their credit card and shit online. I'm glad because If they didn't know better. They would have probably fallen for it but fortunately. I know the internet and all the scams that only old people who don't know about computers fall for.

I never said it was new. I know this has been happening for years but I never experienced the "Microsft Support Indian guy scam".

Phone scammers have been around forever, along with microsoft scams, apple scams. Basically if it's popular there are scams for it.

Read above. That's not what I was saying. Obviously. I'm saying I never had a guy pretending to be Microsoft Support call me. It was pretty damn funny because anyone with half a brain know Microsoft don't call you. You call Microsoft unless you scheduled a call from them if they even do that.[DOUBLEPOST=1516062565][/DOUBLEPOST]
