Two weeks ago my wife gets a call saying it's about "the computer". She ignores and hangs up thinking it's a wrong number.

Last night I get a call that goes like this. . .

Super thick Indian accent lady calling me on an echoing skype line with horrible sound quality.
Me just getting off the phone (45 minutes, 30 of them on hold) with Bell Canada who still owes me money.

Hello I'd like to talk to you about your computer.
What about my computer?
It's telling us you're having a lot of problems.
(I clue in right now it's a scam) What kind of problems?
It's blue screening . . .
Nope!
It's crashing and freezing . . .
Nope!
Uhhhh, it's sending messages to our server saying it's having issues.
What server is that? Who do you work for?
I work for Windows.
Windows?
Yes, I work for windows and we are seeing a lot of errors.
What version do I have? You must know that if you work for WINDOWS!
Vista!
Nope!
Windows seven?
Nope! I'm going to stop you there. You don't work for "Windows".
Yes I do, I work for. . .
Firstly, it's Microsoft, second my computer isn't telling you shit, third I'm sure Microsoft doesn't give a crap if my PC is crashing, not enough to call me, and if they called me they wouldn't be using some shitty skype like service that's echoing like mad.
Sir I am from Microsoft and you're in big trouble, you have lots of viruses and we need to verify your personal information to fix them.
Later.

That was easily, easily! The worst attempt I've ever experienced of someone trying to get my personal information. It's like she thinks after I've already pointed out she's not only a scammer but a poor one that I'm somehow going to give her my credit card number to get rid of a virus.
