Scam: That's the virus. Cna you get to my link?
Me: No, i can't. I must be running a different OS. Do you want me to trace our phone call now or after?
Scam: *click*
They used to call my moms office non-stop and finally I just had her forward those calls to "The head of her offices IT dept." They stopped calling after a few times. She also has a whistle that she will use into the phone receiver and she prays they have headphone volume up loud
