We’ll come to ‘your place’, tech support scammer tells Hamilton woman

A phone scammer posing as Spark employee has been recorded on tape by a Hamilton woman suggesting a visit might be arranged to her home.

The scammer told the woman – who asked not to be identified by name â€“ that an “agent” would call back in the evening to fix an appointment “and come to your place” to look after a supposed malware issue.

The woman said it was possible the scammer was just trying to find a “professional” way to end the conversation after she told him she had no computer and only a smartphone.
