Just had a call to say there are viruses in my tablet.

I've read that if you get one of those con calls you should keep on hitting the### key before hanging up, as it scrambles their computer. Not sure if it works, but worth a try.

I've had those calls, and told them (truthfully) that I have an apple computer. This confuses them because they have nothing in the script to deal with this response.

But mostly, I just do the ### key thing.

I seem to have missed out on these. Its just ppi insurance refunds and extra loft insulation around here. I am well aware of the scams and I could enjoy playing someone along. If I have nothing better to do.

Why, when I see this thread title, do I keep on thinking of chemists and contaminated meds!

I have got some money with State Bank of India and I received an e mail saying my account was blocked.
The money is safe as the bank is backed by the FSA.
I did check with the bank and they confirmed nothing was wrong.
I could look at the account over the internet but I have never had this set up as the account does not mature for another 3 years.
