What?
|
Scammers! Had to mess with him/her.
I've got an ad on the interwebs for my vanagon for sale. I got a text from a scammer asking if I still have it.
   I'm still waiting for a response.

I might have to keep that type of response in mind. I think I'll make up some identity in Nigeria as a Constable or Ambassador!

I always ask them if they could provide me with directions to the nearest Western Union so that I can get them their money faster and not waste my time or theirs. It usually results in a hang-up.

Member back in ye olden times when they'd cold call you and tell you what a opportunity to be had investing in diamond mines or oil/gas leases? It was fun to try and convince them to come work for me selling peanut butter futures and that their "opportunity" was old news. Some almost took me up on it..

I'm quite disappointed with my level of service from Microsoft.
A very nice gentleman phoned and alerted me to a problem with my computer. Much appreciated - thank you. I noticed he had a very strong Chinese accent so as a polite gesture I spoke Chinese with him. I've never spoken Chinese before but I was pretty darn good for a first timer. After a short while he said "fok yo" and hung up. Ha, Microsoft. piss poor service staff these days. |
