Keep getting a call centre phoning our home number telling us we have a mystery virus on a computer.

I can keep them on the phone now for ages going around in circles and winding them up.

One bloke got very abusive because I wouldn't take him seriously.

Hope they keep calling, I really enjoy it.

Looks like it. Had it at my dads house too, he never had a computer in his life.

I had a guy a few weeks ago now claim to be from microsofts "windows department" saying there were errors showing up on my computer. I knew it was a scam so played along with his crap to wind him up. Eventually I asked if I could ask a couple of questions and he agreed. I asked where about are you based and he answered the USA. I went oh thats nice and then asked where exactly in the USA and he said Aukland. So I said isnt that in New Zealand and he hung up on me.

Its obvious they are scammers but it can be fun winding them up lol
