Best way to deal with these people is ask for their name and phone number as your extremely 'busy right now'...they cut off immediately

Or tell them you use an Apple Mac- they get all flustered and don't know what to do!!

I've just received a phone call from someone claiming to be from an IT security firm to discuss my computer and a problem with it being hacked, apparently as we speak.

Obviously this is complete rubbish which I 'made very clear' to the caller.

They may be going through the list of Charlbury phone numbers and not everyone will spot the scam.

Do not give these people any information, just hang up...or give them a piece of your mind and then hang up.

Please pass on to anyone you think may be vunerable.
