So I just got one of those pop ups saying YOUR COMPUTER HAS BEEN HACKED.

I decided to call the number, while firing up a Linux virtual machine, running Linux Mint. I customized the home button to look like the Windows start menu logo, and proceeded to let that scammer connect to it.

He was so confused, considering the script he was reading off of was meant for windows. He opened up terminal, and started typing in "tree" and told me that's how many viruses I have.

    Extremely unlikely. As far as I can tell, those scammers are just people who desperately need money and don't have many other options available in their country. Obviously this doesn't make it right, but given their level of understanding in computers, they were just told to follow a procedure when diagnosing "viruses". But it's still fun to mess around with them xD

    @blacckpigy I once saw a guy use a keylogger to steal the bastard's login info for the service they used to charge people money and then proceed to refund as many of them as he could
