    tell him to hold on as you need the loo, put phone on speaker, go flush the toilet then just don’t pick the phone back up, go about what ever you were doing leaving him to wonder what the hell is going on.

    Put him on to your “sister” and spend the next five minutes with a high-pitched voice. Ask him if he’s single.

    From experience of talking to users, it’s very easy for them to mistype ‘logmein’ many, many times.

    Ask him how to spell it, including ‘onetwothree’ and ask “L… O… is that O for Romeo?”

    Your closing line, incidentally, should be “oh, wait, sorry, my mistake … I don’t have a computer.”

    I let him think I was on his support web site, where he tries to get you to go.

    Then I told him my laptop had frozen.

    Then when advised to cycle the power I told him it was dead, no response.

    Then he worriedly got his supervisor to talk to me.

    Then they advised me to take it to my local hardware support people.

    Then they called me back a few days later and I told them I had to buy a new laptop and the guy had put loads of AV software on it so there was no way it now had a rootkit problem – so I didn’t need their help anymore.

    When you do get the URL correct, make sure you’ve typed it into the search bar rather than the address bar then you get a page full of search results rather than a web page. That’s always good for a couple of minutes. Insist on typing it correctly rather than following the link. Ask what the numbers were again.

    I had one on for ages winding him up – ubuntu running on Mac via virtual host had him confused for a bit.

    He got very abusive to me and i must say i reciprocated and then he read out all my details to me – name, telephone number, full address.

    He was calling me an idiot and a retard etc – i asked him how he felt knowing that i was sleeping in my medium size house with my 2 cars and computers whilst he slept in a shanty town in Mumbai. All very childish from my part but i couldn’t resist.

    At that point i hung up on him.

    If they want your IP address, give them 127.62.193.11 (or anything starting with 127).

    I’ve taken out more than one script kiddie that way.
