What you should do is watch some of those youtube videos where hackers turn it on the scammers and shut down their PC's.

I had one phone yesterday from "BT Openreach" saying there were hackers on my internet connection, and I needed to help them investigate, otherwise my connection would go down.
I hung up.
Funnily enough, this morning my connection DID go down (failed ISP DNS server, as it turned out). I wonder whether this was karma biting me on the a** for being short with him..

MIL had a call from 'SKY' saying they wanted to reward her loyalty and could they have her account details so they could credit her £50.00. She asked for a cheque which they refused. They carried on phoning her though as she hadn't flatly refused, but she was adamant she wanted a cheque. At last they phoned and on the requested for a cheque started shouting obscenities at her and ended with "you've just been messing us around and wasting our fecking time!

Have a virtual "like" - When I clicked the like button on your post, it pops up an error window saying:

Error saving click: You haven't clicked this button yet.

(I noticed you had edited the post, so could it be a bug whereby "Like" clicks on edited posts do that? )

This one is a good one from Mark Rober NASA scientist and part-time do-gooder.

In this one, he stops a really sophisticated scam with many actors using his Glitterbomb (watch the other ones of these if you are not aware, they are good).
