I keep getting calls about my “Windows computer” from some idiots who say they are from the “Service centre for windows operating system”. This looks to me like an attempt to sound like they are calling from Microsoft. I get other phone spammers trying to make out they are calling from Orange when they are not. When pressed they admitted to being from a company called “PCEFIX”. I consider this unethical “sharp business practice” to be dishonest and bordering on fraud.

Their sales pitch is ridiculous and their badly trained operators are clearly reading from a script. They told me that they had received messages about errors from my Windows computer and were calling to help me fix them. We use Apple computers.

This is a shitty business model and no way to get new business or treat potential clients. Why would I let some random caller access my PC to remotely “fix” it? The staff are inept and I have been rudely hung up on without a goodbye for telling them I use Apple computers.

If these are any other idiot spammers call to waste your time, I suggest you string them along for as long as you can and waste their time in return.
