So funny this should probably go in the fun section. :whistling:

So the phone rings this morning, one of those scams and the prick claims to be from Microsoft and was calling because my computer was sending out a virus :clap:

I say, your from Microsoft?

Yes
and your computer is sending out a lethal virus and I'm calling to fix it :jump2:

Yea Yea I know, its a scam so thought I'm going to have some fun. I said if your from Microsoft and your doing tech support you can answer a simple question for me first?

Yes

What is the command line to find an IP address?

She says to me: "The command like is Go F$%k yourself :lotpot:
Hangs up

It don't end there
Wasn't 5 minutes later here comes the punch line
My laptop gets a static looking screen, blue vertical bars and I knew what was going on, video card just went :wtf:

So, spent the rest of the morning on the phone with dell, glad I extended the warranty which would have been up in July :salute:
That extended warranty just paid for itself.

I still say the bitch from Microsoft did it though :shrug:
 
REALLY?? That's the command for finding an IP?? Seriously??

Gets better
Same call again this evening
Same question I ask.

The guy says hold on I'll find out :hmmm:

Microsoft support specialist my ash.
Didn't feel like playing with this one so I gave him a piece of my mind and hung up. :salute:
 
Probably genuine MS support wouldn't know much more, they'd just express their ignorance more diplomatically...due to experience.
 
The guy contracted out through Dell just left

Guess I'm on the PC another day :lol:
I got a new LCD screen
New video card
New keyboard at my request

And its still doing the same thing HaHa!!!! :lotpot:

The guy ordered a motherboard and will be back tomorrow, said its Dell's fault the weird looking characters is a dead giveaway its not the LCD and won't boot.



Hell, I practically got a whole new laptop now :clap:
 
Wow what a pain...I think they should give you a new lap top just for the hassle. FB :-)
