"Windows Security" Scammers making death threats now? Wow
As the title says, this is another "windows security" scam call story, but with added bonus of death threats!
Got the call early this morning, and behold "David" from "windows security" calling with a thick Indian accent. Had I been expecting the call at a different time, I'd have jerked them around to waste their time. Well this morning I was groggy and had none of it, called them out for lying and scamming and blasted a stream of expletives at the scumbag. But once I was done, the caller said "(My name) I will kill you, you (expletive), you family, you (can't make out the rest, another language) and I hung up.
OK. Death threats now? is this common or are these guys getting severely PO'd that people are aware of their scams?
FYI I didn't bother reporting it to police since the call was likely international though voip with fake CID, but still it was extremely unsettling to get this kind of call in the morning. I strongly suspect it may have something to do with members of my household messing with previous PC scam callers (up to 5 by now), though not sure if it's the same party responsible in all cases.
