DoogyRev Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I have had a few "did you know you have a virus on your computer" calls. my usual retort is along the lines of "how do you know that? have you illegally accessed my PC to see?" they soon cut me off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoogyRev Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 How do they get your name and number ? - I've been ex-directory for years They have diallers that just run though the numbers until someone picks up, then its transferred to an operator. When I say operator I actually mean tosspot trying to extort money from old people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess someone sold him a list and I was on it, but how did I get on the list in the first place is what worries me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scobie140 Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 We keep getting phone calls wanting us to recycle our windows and doors, even after I politely tell them its a new build they still ask how old it is and if I would like my guttering updated whilst there doing the doors and windows. If I wanted new doors and windows i'd go looking for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
