I only post this because the proposed victim is my grandniece.

So i just got off the phone with what im sure was a scam........
I answer the phone (who in the world is calling at 7:15 AM?) the guy who barely speaks english asks for grandma. I say I'm sorry she passed a few months ago, the caller then wants to speak to the owner of the computer in my home. He goes on to tell me that people are trying to do bad things on my computer without my knowledge. So i need to turn it on and he will give me instructions on how to fix it.
So i asked him, if you know all this how come you don't know who owns the computer?

His response was, yes Lois owns the computer. I had to laugh, I said my grandmother was 96 yrs old and never went near the computer, I will not turn on my computer for you and hung up.

I really hope people don't fall for that call.

Being forewarned is to be forearmed!
