It took a few times of saying "Hello" and "I can hear somebody is there" before a South Asian guy answered and stated he was with "Windows Technical Support". Knowing this was a scam, I decided to have a little fun. "Boy I'm glad you called! Five minutes ago my computer short-circuited and caught on fire! I should have never installed Windows 10!" He then asked if the computer was on and I replied, "No, the computer caught fire! It doesn't work anymore!" He caught on to my game at this point (maybe) and hung up. I know I should've just hung up at the beginning, but I couldn't resist with this scammer. (BTW: the caller ID showed up as "Virtual Surveil")
