I don't own an iPhone, but apparently somebody from Apple wants me to call them back on not an Apple phone line to get support for the devices that they don't want me to use until I talk to them.

I got a message saying I need a refund for a tech support package because the company is closing, and it looks like I was too late... https://thetalkinggeek.com https://www.podbean.com/thetalkinggeek

This scammer called me back when we got disconnected! He is not related to any famous Cooper, he is located in both Seattle and Florida, and he knows what I ate for lunch. He. Is. David. Cooper. https://thetalkinggeek.com https://www.podbean.com/thetalkinggeek

This nice gentleman I'm speaking to simply wants to refund me money, that I didn't pay, for support that I never received, from Microsoft, whom he doesn't work for - all I have to do is give him remote access to my computer. What a nice guy! https://thetalkinggeek.com https://www.podbean.com/thetalkinggeek

I ramble a little at the end, but before that you might find entertaining the fact that somebody pretending to be Charles Xavier, head of the X-Men, is calling about whether or not I would like to continue my "protection subscription" with Microsoft Windows. When he realizes he won't be scamming me he hangs up, but I call back a couple times and he answers. He tries explaining to me that "this call isn't for [me]", and I try explaining that Cyclops, Jean, & Wolverine are worried about him. He hung up on me again and refused to take any more of my calls. I fear that the Sentinels got to this mutant, and that he will not be selling me any antivirus services. If you immediately recognized the name "Charles Xavier", knew what I was referring to when I said "the brotherhood", or also have a favorite X-Men character (mine is Nightcrawler/Kurt Wagner) then maybe you'd like a nerdy subscription box, here's a couple links to ones I get, which include $5/off to you if you decide to try one: World's Finest: http://i.refs.cc/H9c7W9sG?u=1522215338416 GeekFuel: https://www.geekfuel.com/zEyJxj Loot Crate: http://looted.by/gGy0l Thank you! https://thetalkinggeek.com

I called the "claim and fraud" department of the fake IRS a few times, then they hung up on me when I wasn't the mark that they wanted, and then they had the audacity to block my number - as if I'm a nuisance TO THEM! Which, I guess I technically am...
