Lol nice one.
I already had one of these calls a couple of months ago with similar amusing consequences. He tried claiming he was a Microsoft Expert or some rubbish. Indian guy again.
I do hope no one falls for these idiots. If its someone computer fairly computer illiterate that is quite unsure with that kind of thing they may well do

OK so I've finally had one of those calls from some Indian chap on a very faint line. He was calling me to tell me that my computer had a virus and it was going to crash any minute now! Oh no, I thought...

I'm glad that this guy had chosen to call me, because I was going to drag the call on for as long as possible to waste his time. I made him wait 5 minutes while my computer "booted up" and then a few more minutes to get to Internet Explorer.

He asked me to type in www . alm*** .com and click enter.

So I said to him, can I just check the domain name with you again - is it www. go f*** yourself .com?

He said, no, no, www . alm*** .com.

I said, OK, www. go f*** yourself .com?

No - www. alm*** .com

This went on for another two of three times until he finally realised what I was saying to him, then he hung up. Fool.

Haha this was a funny and unexpected surprise. Good job PCS.

Yes very well done PCS, I cant imagine the amount of computer users who have fallen for this scam.
