Record today was 49 minutes, though with a short break because the call
dropped.

They wanted me to use:
eventvwr
www.ultraviewer.net
www.takesupport.us
www.remotepc.com
www.teamviewer.com
appwiz.cpl (and then wanted me to uninstall document scanner software!)

Hopefully I save another victim.

I was doing other things including making a meal so very little time
wasted for me.

I like it when they say they are 'from' 'Windows', in the same way I
like the SPAM chancers who come up with some story that might be
convincing, were it not for all the typos and technical errors. ;-)

This is in comparison with the real cyber criminals who do actually
ruin peoples lives etc.

Ive had a large string of attempted calls from a Sheffield number,
ironically supposedly about nuisance calls. They never once left a message
on my call blocker though. Only found out about their game from one of
those €œwho called me€� websites.

49 minutes is a fine record. Well done.

I haven't had one of these fine calls for a while. I tend to tell the
callers how bad scamming is for their souls/karma. So, perhaps one of
them cleansed his conscience by taking me off the list?

Yep, I've not managed more than 15mins. :-(

The most amusing one was when I was asked for my ban account number so they could ID me, I told them to hang on, then I said Yes it's defenatly me on the phone I just looked in the bathroom mirror and it's definantly me talking.
I'm still not sure if it was a scam or not. After a few more attemps we sort of mutually gave up.

I've been on TPS for many years, but I still get scammers. Maybe I get
fewer, but how would I know.

Were I the scamming type, I'd ask TPS for a copy of their list.
Marvellous! Verified phone numbers that don't get too many calls.

Your old number was obviously on a list and the new number after you
moved, not on the scammers list. My experience of the TPS is that it
makes no difference to those who might choose to ring, in the UK or
from outside the UK.

Well, half of that time was waiting for my allegedly 10 year old desktop
to boot up, twice in fact because we got cut off for a 1/2 minute,
during which time I turned the PC off, of course. I was asked if it was XP!!

Because I said these websites were blocked, he wanted to go through my
installed programs in control panel, and I said one was Epson Scan. The
not so bright operator wanted me to uninstall this, presumably in belief
it was this application that was blocking access to these remote control
websites.

Same here. I often think I'd like to string scammers along, but in the rare event I get a call, I just can't be bothered.

I did get a call at work asking about my accident.
"Which one?" I replied.
"The accident you had."
"I have lots of accidents. What date do you have?"
"You have to give me details about the accident"
"You're not being very helpful" I said, at which point he hung up.
