Cold Caller Baiting #7

Once again someone with a satellite delay who calls himself David, but doesn’t sound like one, has phoned asking about “your washing machine warranty.”

“Which washing machine warranty?”
“Hotpoint.”
“I haven’t got a Hotpoint.”
“Oh then the data must be wrong”

And there he was – gone.

“Guess any washing machine make” I commented to Fester who was sat next to me.

“They’ll never guess ours” he replied.

And now a mechanical call tells us that our line will be disconnected because of “suspicious activity on your BT internet address.”

As Fester says:  it would be suspicious as we don’t use them.

Also, if the mechanical phone messages are to be believed, it seems Amazon is regularly getting huge receipts from our non-existent Prime Account and the Inland Revenue are about to take us to court for non-payment of taxes.
