A Phone Scammer Capable Of Independent Thought?!
I receive a phone call from an unrecognized number, but I’m in the process of searching for a new job, so I answer. I’m sitting with my family, watching television.
Scammer: “Hello, I am calling because your computer has many viruses.”
I make my voice as distraught as possible.
Me: “Oh, no! My computer is infected with viruses?!”
Scammer: “Ma’am, why are you talking in such a tone? It is very disrespectful, and I do not appreciate it. This is a very serious matter!”
I’m surprised because it’s the first time a scammer has immediately gone on the offensive instead of sticking with their script. Even more surprising, he then hangs up on me.
Me: “He hung up!”
Husband: “Can they even do that?”
Apparently so!
