I tell them that's a pretty good trick, considering I don't even have a computer connected to the internet, grin. They usually hang up and only call back occasionally. My sister played along with them one time and kept them on the phone for 20 minutes. After one step, he asked her what was on her computer screen. She told them nothing. The man was puzzled for a minute. She replied that she didn't have a computer and that she just had a desire to annoy him the same way he had annoyed her. He never called back. I hope this gives at least one person a smile.

I get these as well, I just hang up on them. I don't think it has anything to

   Subject: OT: Annoying Window Technical Service Calls from India or where ever


   Hello,

   On my last system, a Win 7 system, it seemed when ever I started up my
   computer, shortly after, I would receive a call from a person telling me
   they were from the Windows Technical Service, or something like that.
   So far,every call, which are probably two or three dozen by now, have all 
been
   from people with thick accents from some far away place.

   I knew these guys were up to no good, but I would like to get rid of
   them calling me.

   Thought when I change systems, I would sease getting these calls.  Not
   so.

   I have Software to rid my system of viruses and Malware, but still these
   folks keep calling.

   Anyone here find a solution to stop these people from calling?

   I have started to play along to see what they will do.  Even I need
   entertainment.

   But, I am getting bored and they amazingly seem to really get upset when
   they find out I've been playing them along.    totally halairious at
   times, but now I really just need to stop the calls.

   Anyone have good advice?

   Grumpy Dave
