Funny Prank on Windows Technical Support Scammer

If you have ever received a call from someone in India claiming to be calling from Windows Technical Support, you will love this post. I cannot stand those calls, and worse, I feel sorry for the people they scam. They call telling you that they received a report, and something is wrong with your “Windows Computer”. Don’t worry though, because they will help you fix it.

They usually want you to grant them access to your computer. NEVER DO THAT!!! They tell you that you have a virus, or outdated drivers and your computer is going to crash. Then they want money to fix your computer and they are ripping off tens of thousands of people every day.

So, I thought rather than just hanging up on this guy, giving him time to scam other people, I would turn the tables and have some fun with him. This would tie him up from pulling his scam on others, and give us all a bit of entertainment.

I recorded the call and it is quite funny. Best of all, even though these scammers can get very vicious and go into profanity laced rants (Yes, that has happened before with another of their scams for a medical mesh product), this call is G rated. Hope you like it.

So what did you think? Let me know if you receive these calls and if you have ever done anything like this. I would love to hear all about it.

Our Evening With The Original Harlem Globetrotters!!! #PTPAGlobies

As a PTPA Blogaholic I was provided with tickets to this event for myself and my family.  All views and opinions are as always, 100% my own.

We recently attending an Original Harlem Globetrotters event at the Webster Bank Arena in Connecticut.  We took our little boys ages 5 and 7 and it was their first time seeing the Globetrotters.  The evening started with a VIP meet and greet with some of the players.  This was very exciting and we saw close up how tall Stretch was, he is very tall!

Check out our instagram for more meet and greet photos.

 

After that we stopped to get food and headed to our seats.  The show started and it was filled with all kinds of antics, feats of skill and fun.  The Washington Generals were there along with their elderly coach and that whole scenario was the premise for lots of jokes and laughs.

People were pulled out throughout the show and thrust into character themselves.  Big Easy was hysterical with his comical interaction with the crowd.  Taken a ladies purse, drinking a kids soda, dancing with the husband of the woman who he stole the purse from and so much more.

H-G-14

A wonderful time with the mascots Globe (Globee) and Big G who were a  hit with kids and adults alike.  When Big G who was full of air kept falling on his face with a splat it was absolutely hilarious.

We had a wonderful time and if the Original Harlem Globetrotters make their way nearby to you during their tour, you should plan to go see them for a night of side-splitting fun on the court.  You can go HERE to check dates, locations and purchase tickets.

The boys went home with some loot.  We bought them tee shirts and basketballs so they can always remember the first time they saw the Original Harlem Globetrotters.  I am sure it won’t be the last time.

Check out NickMom.com & Get Your MotherFunny Laugh On!!!

I am a member of the Collective Bias® Social Fabric® Community. This shop has been compensated as part of a social shopper insights study for Collective Bias and its client.

So many people ask how I do it with 5 kids, a husband and all the jobs I juggle.  I always tell them you must have a sense of humor.  If you take things too seriously you are bound to be disappointed.  Motherhood is full of twists and turns and if you think it’s going to be a smooth ride, you are in for a bit of a shake up.  So when the perfect family dinner out turns into a three-ring circus or the relaxing family vacation gives you more stress than anticipated just drop all the expectations and learn to laugh and love your family for keeping it real.

When it has been a rough day and let’s face it motherhood has a lot of them, a good laugh can help so much to lighten your mood and lift your spirits.  Laughing with other moms who face the same issues and challenges can be super comforting too and that’s why I love NickMom.com.  There are so many great ways to laugh there.  I love looking at the photos, I actually laugh out loud looking at some.  I want to share some of my favorites I found there today with you:

Something seems really off here doesn't it.

Okay all you moms who have to name your child an unusual name or a common name with an unusual spelling,..This is for you!!!

Okay this is too much, makes me want to join the YMCA just to do this.

You might not get why I think this is so funny. If I tell you we have our older son's friend Keith living with us for the last 3 years you might understand why I LOL at this big time!!!

Besides funny photos, you can browse through lots of side-splitting content on the site.  See what your shoe choice really says about you.  I did not see one for flats so I chose Crocs because I wear them around the house and I’m insane!  They hit that nail right on the head, Muhahahaha!

What your shoe choice says about you.

Feel free to share what your shoes are saying about you in the comments.  Another great thing to check out is stand up comedy short videos like this one you can watch here about the mom that makes you feel guilty, or here for the mom who gets other mothered.  There are so many others that I am sure you will find you can relate to as you lose some stress and laugh.

So I hope you all check out NickMom.com and you can watch every night at 10 pm ET. Check out the TV schedule Here to see what’s on.  You can also stay connected with NickMom on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & Pinterest.  Now go get your laugh on and stop fretting that you are not crafty, knits her own sweaters out of  Alpaca yarn she spins herself after shearing her herd and making her own soap while homeschooling her 17 kids mom; because you know there is more to that story than what makes it to Instagram right?
