On occasion when bored, I will decide to get involved with various scam emails or “support centre” calls for a bit of fun. More often than not, it’s not nearly as amusing as I’d hoped because the people on the other end really have no idea about anything, and don’t deviate much from the script they have been given.

Note: Thank you to all the people who have responded to this post and shared the emails they have received. I’m happy to discuss anything if anyone has any questions, but to reduce the size of the comments section I’ll just approve emails if they are significantly different to the ones we already know about. Thanks.
