Virus Alert - serious now
Posted: 16 Jan 2011
This isn't bull shit, so take it seriously...
One of Mrs B's colleagues had a virus on her computer
Not exactly sure how it manifested itself, but she got a call from (allegedly) Microsoft, stating they had her details and virus information and that for £130 they'd remotely sort it out.
She said no and that she'd rather get work to sort it.
She then got another call from (again, allegedly) Microsoft stating that they had been able to isolate the virus and that the cost would now be £40 to 'resolve' the virus.
As far fetched as this sounds, it is a true story (unless Mrs B is being stiched up by her colleague) so please trust me on this one and spread the word.
Bad assed as it is, it's quite clever!
