[QUOTE="Robinredbreast, post: 405267, member: 44643"] Hi At my elderly dad's today, about 11.45am, his phone rang, so I picked it up. A foreign man started saying that my computer is having problems( I don't live there) and they have found a virus and was spouting blah, blah, blah. I listened and after a short while I said " this is an elderly persons phone and he doesn't have a computer, the man then said a laptop. hearing that I said assertively :- " There is no computer here and this is a scam, if you EVER call this number again, I will inform the Police............. then just silence. Dialled 1471 and, not surprised, number was unavailable. How dare they call my dad or any older person, that made me mad, no one tries to scam my dad :x grrrrrrr RRB [/QUOTE]
