Microsoft/Windows Spammers are ringing again
Good Day, had 3 calls within 1 hour at lunch from so-called Microsoft or Windows engineers to tell me my PC had a virus, I told them that I did not have a PC, then click gone!!!!!

Their phone calls cost virtually nothing but their time is precious.

I love the Spam callers as in the UK I am on giffgaff and anyone who phones me I get the time in minutes added to my credit. So I play dumb and let them whitter on not listening to a word they say but topping my phone up for free.
