I was feeling a bit left out having not had the washing machine warranty scam call, so imagine my delight when I got just such a call this morning
Their patter has evolved since some of you have asked awkward questions about makes and models, so that when I asked the guy to which washing machine he was referring to he said they don't record the make or model, just the serial number (and proceeded to read out a random selection of numbers and letters). Sadly I didn't have the time to string the call out as I'm supposed to be working, so just hung up after that.
