Had a Blast with a Scammer Today – Share Your Own Stories of Turning the Tables!

Got call years ago
Caller Hi I understand you have been in a accident
Me freaking out OH MY GOD when did it happen OH MY GOD have I got brain damage is this why I cant remember it
CALLER taking deep breath um um and put phone down strangley they never called back
 
I had someone who phoned to say they had detected a fault with our computer, I just asked if it was easier to give them all our passwords, account details etc straight off rather than going through the lengthy script to gain access to our computer. They just put the phone down on me, rude 😂😂😂🤷
 
I used to answer the phone then put it in front of the TV with volume up until they hung up, now I have BT Call Guardian so don't get them anymore
 
Its the accident claim ones that get me all the time 🤦‍♀️🤣 they call and say I've heard you've been in an accident? My reply OMG! REALLY? am I OK? Did I survive? They always hang up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
 
@kriss I always act really horrified and say I'm going to sue my doctor for breach of patient confidentiality because how else would a stranger know?
 
📞 Scammer: There’s an issue with your computer.
Me: what, which?
Scammer: your Microsoft.
Me: I use iPad.
Scammer: yes, Apple.
Me: WELL IS IT MICROSOFT OR APPLE?
Pause…Me: Goodbye scammer.
😂😂😂

Best 25 minute call I have ever had
 
One scammer we got supposedly from Nat West saying there’d been some unusual activity on the account.
Me….that’s ok I’ll sort it out , I work for Nat West.. they put phone down straight away and another time a scammer rang, I said speak to my son cos he’s a police officer ..boom phone down lol
 
Not a scammer but the best cold caller call ever was someone trying to sell me "cheaper gas and electric". I lived in an off grid bus at the time. I took great delight in totally confusing her by telling her I didn't use any gas or electricity 👍🏻
 
When my daughter was younger I used to pass the phone to her and say this person wants a song, she'd give them a blast of twinkle, twinkle,.... or wind the bobbin... they soon put the phone down 🤣🤣
