• Tech-Support Scammers

    Well, I managed to waste a few minutes of the time of yet another tech-
    support scammer. She had the details of the address associated with my
    phone number, but I don’t think she got the right name. She did the usual story about seeing traffic to multiple devices of mine that should not be publicly accessible on the Internet. But when I asked her what the
    addresses were of those devices, because I had multiple ones (I tried to
    lead her on by saying that I used the 127 subnet, so my devices would have addresses like 127.0.0.1, 127.0.0.2 etc), she dodged the question,
    multiple times.
