Re: Virgin media phone scam
Well your windows version is that old maybe it's correct lol.
I got a call once about windows having a virus and they needed to take over my pc to help. I told them to get lost as I only own and use Apple computers. The guy didn't know what to say next... |

Re: Virgin media phone scam
I had a call saying BT would close my line. I said I was on VM not BT, they rang off.
Later same day had call with same "voice" saying VM would close my line. I asked for their office/personnel number so I could confirm their ID, they rang off. |
Re: Virgin media phone scam
I had somebody phone my Virgin number (x-directory) claiming to be from BT and that my BT internet was compromised.
Usually you know it's a cold caller as there's a short "dead" delay before the call centre computer connects a salesman to you giving you time to hang up on them. Reminds me I must get a caller ID phone on that line now that it's a no cost extra. |
