Haha! My ex partner actually got done by this one last week. Their pitch worked a treat because her computer was actually running terribly... Though if she'd listened to me when I explained that this was because a.) it's a laptop, b.) she leaves it running on the floor where it sucks up dust and other shit, c.) she never turns it off, then problem may have been avoided. Never mind! The bank generously invalidated the credit card trans for 'services rendered', and they only withdrew a couple of hundred dollars from her account. I told her that she needed to hand back her Masters of Information Systems.

Hilariously, the hosebags actually called her back to check whether 'everything was alright' after the cards got cancelled and the accounts were changed... Bloody fearless, cheeky bastards!
