It's not worth bothering with all that. I just hang up. It seems like the
calls come in fits and starts. You get a bunch of them, then you don't get
any for a while, then you get another bunch of them. One guy asked for my
husband by name. I said he was dead, and slammed the phone down. He called
back the next day. Pam.

I like to act like I'm going along with them, I say just a minute, or if
they ask me for my name or my wife's name, I say hold on or I'll get him or
her, then I lay the phone down and let them wait until they give up. I
figure after a while they'll get tired of wasting all that time on hold.

I haven't actually tried this yet, but I'm thinking about it. Paste the url
below into your web browser and check it out. I'm not sure it works on cell
phones yet or with wireless companies but definitely on land lines.

Subject: OT: Annoying Window Technical Service Calls from India or where
ever
Hello,
On my last system, a Win 7 system, it seemed when ever I started up my
computer, shortly after, I would receive a call from a person telling me
they were from the Windows Technical Service, or something like that.
So far,every call, which are probably two or three dozen by now, have all
been
from people with thick accents from some far away place.
I knew these guys were up to no good, but I would like to get rid of
them calling me.
Thought when I change systems, I would sease getting these calls. Not
so.
I have Software to rid my system of viruses and Malware, but still these
folks keep calling.
Anyone here find a solution to stop these people from calling?
I have started to play along to see what they will do. Even I need
entertainment.
But, I am getting bored and they amazingly seem to really get upset when
they find out I've been playing them along. totally halairious at
times, but now I really just need to stop the calls.
Anyone have good advice?
Grumpy Dave
