Hmmm. Scams these days.

Your windows pc has a virus. I'm running linux you weirdo.

I received an email that someone hacked into my account and stole all my info as well as browser history. Oh, and they hacked into my camera and have snaps of me doing things and all the dirty sites I've visited. They demand bitcoins or will send these pics to everyone in my contact list. They obviously don't know my friends...

Yes.. Its been tried in a few places.. The next step is to get your card details to "process the matter prompts" or even to get you to buy value cards and use them over the phone to avoid arrest.

"You can pay us in Applebees Gift Cards." 😐

Once some fella from a funeral home called me accidentally with questions about my deceased grandma.

I don’t remember exact details.... but he had the wrong number.

We talked for like an hour.

The Taxation Department won’t issue conditional warrants of arrest....neither will they call you on the telephone.

I get these calls regularly. "A warrant has been issued for your arrest for non payment of taxes. If you do not call us immediately, I can only hope the best for you when you are hauled off to jail."
If you get these calls, note the number. When they call back, answer the call saying, "sheriff office, fraud department". The one time I did this, they said, What?. So i repeated,... they hung up immediately, and haven't called me back since.

im pretty sure they send letters by mail ...lol

Sad thing is that plenty of people will fall for it.

Methinks is was, too. What ever became of this?

Absolutely a scam.
