Unfortunately, I wasted the opportunity.
Problem is, I'm answering calls on my phone, because I'm expecting calls from job recruiters.
So this call was simply annoying. First, I could tell it was a boiler room call...and the guy had an accent of a certain type.
Then he goes into the spiel about my computer emitting error messages for the past couple of weeks.
I told him that was interesting because "my computer is off right now".
He actually had the balls to ask if I wanted to schedule a call-back.
So I told him my computer was off because the power supply was broken, and had been for a couple of days. His response? "Oh, my".
I think at that point he realized he was busted, but he didn't say anything. I told him I might not even use that computer anymore, and might just buy a new one. Then he thanked me and hung up.
I really should have jacked with him, but I wasn't in the mood, and I didn't want my phone tied up for very long.
