    This is a serious phone call that really happened. Not kidding. Also, this is based on memory. :p Enjoy the idiot who thought he could hack my computer. :)
    So, we're watching Despicable Me 2, and the phone rings. My mum answers it and it's the 3rd time of the four that "Windows" called today. So, my mum hands me it and I go up to my room to answer the call.
    WT*: *with Indian Accent* Hello ma'am, you are de owner of the Windows Computer correct?
    Me: Uh, yes yes I am.
    WT: We have been notified that uh, you're bank, when you sign in online, they actually have access to your computer and are stealing files and your money. I am calling you to help you un-download the viruses.
    Me: *Sarcasm* Oh my. Oh my, that's horrible. Really really bad. I can't believe that they would do this.
    WT: OK so uh, is your computer on?
    Me: Yes, it is on. [LIES! *gasp*]
    WT: OK, You know the uh, the uh, Windows icon on the keyboard?
    Me: Mhm?
    WT: Next to that is command, can you press that and uh, press L and tell me what comes up?
    Me: Well uh, nothing comes up. It's a blank screen :t
    WT: Ma'am, I need you to press command+l. OK?
    Me: I did. There's a window.
    WT: Can you tell me what it says?
    Me: Well, it doesn't. My computer is a bit old you know? It's 1.3
    WT: Ma'am, please press Command+L.
    Me: Actually, I work for the CIA and the window that came up was your GPS coordinates. One of our drones is now targeting onto you. I suggest you take cover.
    WT: Ma'am! I need you to press Command+L!
    Me: I work for the CIA, and one of our drones have been sent your coordinates. I suggest you take cover.
    WT: OK, Ma'am I will switch to a midline for a better connection.
    Me: I'm sorry, you'll go to Middle Earth and Call me?
    WT: I need to switch to a midline.
    Me: Middle Earth?
    WT: *Hangs up*
    I'm not kidding, this actually happened XD Then my dad answered the fourth call and talked with the woman about Calling about the goat for "Sexual purposes" o3o :3 XD. This is not even a joke. Totally 100% real.

    I find these calls sickening because so many vulnerable people actually fall for it. There are some brilliant trolling videos on Youtube (other video-based social-media platforms are available) where the person they call thoroughly wastes their time and delivers some hard truths about how their actions are affecting people - even bringing one caller to tears!

    Well done for wasting their time a little!

    Yes, it is horrible. Next time I intend to piss the caller off and telling him, "Oh you're Pakistani!"

    Indians and pakistanis hate each other. Pakistan used to be a part of india.

    They're like rivals now.

    OK, I understand. I misunderstood what was stated, I was checking it wasn't a racist statement.

    Thanks for the clarification

    Yeah my mum gets calls by people from "windows" too apparently we have a lot of corrupt files on our computer. One time my mum played along with it the guy was giving her the instructions and she was "following" them. She told them that our computer jammed up and she said it was a WindowsXL (very very old computer) so the guy told her many of ways how to unjam it :')

    Next time I'm gonna tell them "Oh didn't you hear the news? The president just declared war on India and Pakistan, and your work place is one of the targets. I suggest you take cover before one of our beautiful Predator drones blow your a** to bits. Have a nice day".
