I usually just hang up we get it a lot at work, another ploy is about your website I have never bothered to see how that one goes...

Once we kept it guy (and it was an international call as we had it traced) on line for over 2 hours... me making it sound like I was all concerned... but I got bored with it and then said "its strange that you think we are running Microsoft Windows Vista, considering this a linux system and our other systems are Mac."

It was actually them that hung up on us... how rude... BTW at work we are windows XP...

faxes are still used for spam...

It's certainly easier to block email spam than fax spam, except spammers can't send out thousands of faxes at once

What you do with fax spam, is you set up a loop of one continus fax of a full page black block then set your system to send this fax back on continous auto dial to get the in on the break of the spammers fax machine once you get it you system will continous send your fax loop back to them... depending on the fax machine being used if and older machine its wasting paper and ink... if its a computer which is most likely today it is tying up that computer and phone line, slowly filling the hdd with nothing...

These pricks here still calling me. Yelling abuse at them doesn't work. Maybe I need to learn some Indian language insults to yell at them

I told the one that just called I need to turn on the PC first, then I put down the phone. Don't know how long he will hang on the line for

LOL Make it a game. Get the stopwatch out. Try and make some idle chit chat and tell him OSX will take a minute to boot up

The last time I got that call I told the person I built computers for a living (I don't) so could fix anything myself and that anyway I used Linux so Windows issues didn't worry me. She still tried to get me to log onto their website.

It was kind of fun to play with her a bit though. Oh. I wouldn't know one end of Linux from the other by the way.

I had the call last week. I strung them until I got bored & told them to piss off & anoy some other sucker. Apparently he is going to fuck all my family - we're not cheap....
