I was reading little news clips and human interest stories when I clicked on a picture of a beautiful German Shepherd who adopted an abandoned kitten. Immediately a warning flashed across my screen that "They" had detected possible dangerous scam and call this number right now and they would help me clear it. If I turned off my puter without calling the number they would have to shut me down. I closed it and called my daughter to come over and she was able to fix it for me. (SIGH) Some evil people are so mean and stupid they have nothing better to do than cause trouble of others.
Somebody hacked my computer.
Poor little innocent thing.
She was minding her own business,
Not bothering one little thing.
Then I clicked on an interesting picture,
Not knowing the trouble I'd bring,
Confusing my poor little puter,
Causing her to run hide in the stream,
Of air waves surrounding all puters,
With info and email and such.
I tried for days to coax her out,
But frightened she ignored my touch.
A threatening message had come on,
Immediately warning me,
To call this number right away,
And they'd help me for a fee.
If I did not call them,
They'd have to shut me down.
My puter trembled quietly,
While I searched around,
To find someone to help me,
Find my stricken friend.
My daughter to the rescue came,
And to this put an end.
She did a factory reset,
And got me back online.
My puter's feeling better now.
She's cleared her little mind.
My daughter soothed her shattered nerves,
And stopped the unseen crooks.
She really saved the day for me.
She's cool, she knows what cooks.
