A very nice Asian sounding man called Barry from Global UK working

had been identified by the International Routing System and this had
alerted Microsoft to call in his services. I led him on a bit this
afternoon and he asked me to run EVENT VWR on my PC.

Oh, I'd love to get one of those.

All I seem to get at the moment are
"Sir, we've been told that you or a member of your family were
involved in an accident recently"...
which isn't true, so I just tell them they've been ripped off by
the person who sold them the data (and this sector is now a large
business, so it's not surprising people started selling fake data).

How odd. I was a witness to a car accident last week. I have had 3 calls/texts already about my claim! I managed to keep one woman
on the phone for 15 minutes before she realised I was making my injuries up and was not involved in an accident.

I'm surprised they gave up so easily if they were genuine claims management people.
She would be about as bothered about how genuine your injury was as a defence
barrister is about the actual guilt or innocence of his client.

Witnessing an accident can be the cause of much mental anguish and trauma ;-) ;-) ;-)
