Sorry but more 'Scams'

I had a Phone Call, this morning, about half past ten. Apparently I was going to 'lose', my Broad Band Connection, for around two weeks. However, if I gave 'Them' ALL my Internet Details, then I could remain connected....Really?? I Telephoned, the real BT, who, Surprise Surprise, knew Nothing about this. There were, in fact, NO planned Works, in my area, at all. As I've said, many times before, it's a 'Bl..dy Good Job', that I have my Wits about me.

I seem to be Bringing more, and more, 'Scams to light' onto these pages- however, and I absolutely promise this, I will continue, to do so, as long as the Scammers create the need.

Please DO pass this on, to everyone you know.

Dear Andrew, You are very wise to check out these things. Anyone, through phone or internet , who asks for personal details, should be considered suspicious until proven otherwise.

This almost sounds worthy of a police report. I am sure there must be others getting these calls who may not have their wits about them.

How did they even have your phone number, I wonder?

I had this too

Sorry, pressed wrong button. Apparently my account had been hacked worldwide and I needed to press a button to connect to the person who could stop it. Needless to say I didn't!

I'm NOT a 'Vindictive' person, at all, normally but if there was a button marked 'Fry The Brains Of All Scammers', I might be Tempted...Very Tempted Indeed!
