called twice. Asking for permission to send free college information to me....claimed to already have my address, but wanted to confirm it was the right place. I said I was sick and then he wished me "Inshalee" and hung up. Come to find out from my middle eastern bf that it means "if god permits". Why would a telemarketer speak to me in another language?
Called identified as Microsoft Security representatives. I allowed their accessing my computer & they showed my windows/inf files as evidence of computer corruption. They had a $99 package which would solve the problems, but while they were talking, I disconnected the computer so they could not install any corrupting software. The agent responded, "you turned off your computer. It will be permanently damaged now unless you allow us to correct those errors." I hung up. Everything seems to be working now.
