Lennie replied "I don't have a computer". (And he doesn't.) The
scammer was furious. "You've wasted my time". Lennie just said "I
didn't call you, you called me".
Reminds me of a friend of mine who was a Mac guy. When the
Microsoft Support guys called, if Greg felt like having fun, he would
play along with them without telling them he was using a Mac.
Eventually, the scammers would get frustrated and give up.
At times I have toyed with the idea of writing an OS/2 program that
would pretend to be a Windows remote control program. I've never looked
up the details of the Windows back door, but I suspect I'd be able to
take over the scammer's computer. It's always sounded like too big a
job, though.
