buddahj Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I just had an interesting phone call a few minutes ago. It was from someone who claimed to work for an "internet agency". They claimed that my computer was infected & was uploading/downloading malicious programs. They wanted me to go to www.ammyy.com & run this program. BTW, it's a remote desktop program. I wonder what they wanted??? I just wanted to give you all a heads up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't care what happens to completely mindless cretins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the completely mindless cretin that just took your phone order for your monthly supply of Geritol and PreparationH? Seriously, I tend to agree with you, but there are some people who are smart, but trusting and gullible. I've been married to one for 15 years.

buddahj Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 Recent internet scam: http://www.avforums.com/forums/isps-intern...-call-scam.html I kept asking for someone who spoke english. They would then "transfer" me to a supervisor who spoke the same 7-11 english the last guy did. This went on for about 5-10 minutes before I got bored & hung up.
