Junk Calls

[Phil]

I'm sick of getting these now, I seem to get more and more. Some are even local numbers like from the next town, some are from Leeds, most from London.

I instantly block numbers, mostly I reply with a comment but I know people are just doing their jobs.

If someone catches me in a bad mood though I let complete and total rip, like the Nigerian guy who rang me and said I was having problems with my windows computer and I must turn it on so he can run me through the process of emptying my bank account. I lost count of the number of c words (and worse) I called him before he hung up.

I once let an indian caller named 'Angelina' (of course) help me with a problem she had detected on my computer for about half an hour, I kept telling her how slow my computer was and kept getting thtings wrong and that I was so grateful that someone was helping me with all the viruses on it.
You could hear in her voice that she was relieved to have found such a gullible victim
Anyway it goes on and on for ages, she eventually gets me to type an address into the intertnet explorer address bar and asks me what it says on the page, I said ' I'll read it word for word, right it says..... How gullible do you think I am', she properly shouted at me for wasting HER time and hung up
