Had another cold call from a scammer today with the usual I'm from Microsoft and there is something wrong with your computer.
This time I played along and said that my son does all the computing stuff and that recently it's been slowing down a lot and it must be all the viruses he has picked up from going to naughty sites.
But this time I had him for about 30 minutes on the line with him asking me to boot up the computer and follow his commands. I got him quite upset with the silly bugger on the other end when he asked me what I saw in the window on the screen, having taken a while to get to that point in the exercise. I started to describe it in detail and got him really puzzled when he asked what window was I looking at and I blithely said the one that looks into my neighbours bedroom.
Then I had a great time not understanding his heavy accent, confusing b with d etc. He really got exasperated and saying r for Romeo etc etc and I kept messing it up until I asked if he had a sister and what was she wearing (intimate apparel only) at that point he gave some expletives and hung up.
My wife thought I was terrible but I needed a little humour in my life.
