Playing with a Scammer

Just now got a call from "Billy" of the Computer Monitoring Department at Microsoft. Turns out they've been monitoring my laptop and...

"I'VE BEEN HACKED???"

He told e quite gently that yes, you've been hscked.

I kept repeating OH NO OH NO I'VE BEEN HACKED

He was getting impatient with me and I said, What can I do? Should I just send you money? How much?

Do you take American Express? What can I do to fix this?

I was quite enjoying myself when he hung up on me!

I received an e mail today stating that I had money in a bank in Nigeria...over 10 million American dollars. They had a pin # for me and everything. They just needed CERTAIN info on me. Of course the biggest one was proof on my identity.

I just couldn't resist and I sent them a reply in the largest type with capital letters stating....YOU MUST THINK THAT I AM A FUCKING IDIOT!!!!

Sorry about the language but I couldn't help it.
