There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We can reduce the focus to a soft blur, or sharpen it to crystal clarity. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to..............................

What happened to me once upon a time was I had a call from "microsoft" claiming my computer had a virus on it.
It was a Pakistani creature on the phone and he said he was from microsoft and he needed me to click on a link to fix the virus.
He wanted to speak to my grandfather but I told him he had passed away years ago then he told me I doesn't matter with a very angry voice telling me do I want my pc fixed or not.
I told him that God will punish him for his dodgey behaviour and that working with criminals is not the solution to life's problems and he will burn in hell.
I then tried to keep him on the lin longer because I wa having a lot of fun screwing with his mind
I then said I am going to give you number over to the police LOL and then he hung up! XD
It was hilarious I couldn't stop laughing. I hope dies of a horrible and excruciatingly painful cancer that gives insane pain over many years
It would be justice after all

Some people using linux have stung the phishers badly. Stories posted in security forums.
Gee. How do you sudo that? Terminal can't do that command
Called me once - but I use ringtones for ID. Heard Cocaine (Ringtone) and didn't answer. Did a lookup on the computer later.
I like screwing with them sometimes, too, but the calls about an infected "compooter" have long since ended in my house. They must have me on their black list.
Now I am getting robo calls from "charitable" organizations supposedly collecting for disabled veterans and firefighters. Can't argue with a recording.
