dj card statement

@FreakyFwoof I once got a call pretending to be Microsoft, had detected a problem on my computer and needed to remote fix (I was all in on Mac but never mind that!).

I played along until they wanted me to go to a web site and provide some credentials. I asked “Should I disconnect from the reactor first?”. He was puzzled, and I explained that I was in the control room of Heysham Nuclear Power Station and the PC ran Reactor Control software.

Click.

I just got an amazon scammer on the phone, calling to tell me that' An order was placed for Apple iPhone'
and they were *supposedly* calling to confirm it.
Of course most people go 'No no it wasn't me of course not, what do I do?'
To which they would take over my machine and do unspeakable things.
I just said 'Yep, I placed that order'
and totally derailed the script.
All he could do was hang up.
tosswank!
