Scam Call – £1,568 worth of Jelly Babies

Earlier today I received a couple of scam phone calls pretending to be from Amazon.
 
I live-Tweeted the calls as they were happening to the amusement of many people on Twitter, So I figured I may as well share them here.
I have just received an automated phone call from a mobile phone number informing me they were Amazon and were querying a £1,568 order of an iPhone 11. A nice Indian bloke called Darren is chatting to me, to explain how “hackers” used my phone number to create a fake account
Darren has asked if I want to cancel the order and get a refund, but I have explained that I have watched the film “Takedown” and know those hackers like Mitnick can launch nukes by whistling. and I am too scared to cancel their order….
Daren is now asking about my online banking, But I have explained I do not do online banking, or offline banking due to fears “Hackers” using my phone number will steal all my money to buy iPhone’s so I will accept the refund in Jelly Babies… Darren seams confused
Darren is still helping me with the Hacker, and is asking about what smart devices I use. I have informed him i use an etch-a-sketch, Palm Pilot and a tamagotchi. I did point out I was a bad owner and the tamagotchi is technically dead. I think Darren is crying.
All is not lost.. I just excitedly told Darren that before I saw Takedown I used to do online banking on my programmable calculator.. I think Darren must be ill, he seems to be getting very confused and close to tears. Maybe he is struggling to understand my Welsh accent.
I have decided to help Darren understand my accent and language better by speaking VERY LOUDLY, I think this is helping as he must be struggling to hear over all the people in the background making similar calls. Who knew Hackers loved iPhone 11’s
I told Darren I would ask Twitter if anyone know how we could install Logmein on a calculator. He got excited for a while about what I ran twitter on, then he swore when I said I only tweet via carrier pigeon. Darren seems invested in the call, or he would have gone by now
Sad news people. Darren has gone. I think I need to report him to Amazon. He said I was a very rude man who has wasted his valuable time. He also suggested there may be something mentally wrong with me…. I guess that means i am not getting £1,568 worth of Jelly Babies.
Today just keeps giving. 5 minutes after Darren hangs up on me I get another Amazon recorded call about a £1,568 iPhone purchase. This time it was a lovely lady called Karen, she is not as friendly as Darren since within 1 minute she screamed “it’s you!” and hung up on me
