101 The Rise of Karl

101 The Rise of Karl

Tonight on CEP: A very special Torment a Scammer episode!

  • Marc announces his new Webinar Waiting Lists - one for consumers and one for aspiring technicians!
  • Foghorn calls those Norton impostors back, and asks them why they keep urging him to cancel. (Once you request a refund, they can ask for your credit card or bank account numbers.)
  • I then hear another guy in the background scamming someone else, so I ask my scammer about him.
  • Once I finally let him into my test computer, he claims there's "AI Software scanning your computer", when in reality he's snooping around looking for passwords.
  • The next call was done by a buddy of mine who goes by Karl Millechamp. I pass him the number for an Apple impostor and he makes quick work of them. When they ask for his name, he takes them on a journey through wild spellings ("K A J R X L...") and they fall for it. It's a comedic masterpiece unlike anything you've heard here so far.

So if you're ready to learn more about tech or want join the good fight, sign up for my webinar waiting list at thecomputerexorcist.com !
