Beware!

[ginreisan]

Beware of an out of area call with somebody claiming to be tech support. Just had a person like this call here at Dad's house. Saying they had gotten error and corruption messages and need to fix it before it takes over the computer. Told them we have not had any messages like that and no problems. He tried to say that only they get the messages.

Social Engineering at its most pathetic!

What's sad is I know there's a bunch of people out there who fall for this.

Yeah, I got that.

My reply was, "My mac laughs at your windows tech support. Ba ha ha ha ha. ha. Moo." And I hung up on them.
