"Hello". There is a distinctive silence on another end, with some background noise. Scammers. I just keep waiting. Several seconds later someone starts talking: "Good day, I am calling from Microsoft customer service. How are you today?" speaks man with strong Indian accent.

Most of my life I used not to take my self too seriously and I think it is a good trade. It become more difficult after trauma, but sometimes, I still notice the events that make me smile.

When scammers are more decent than QBE insurance or some personal injury lawyers

An hour ago, I got an email from my previous solicitors that they want me to take my site down. The only explanation that I have not discussed it with them. I am not going to do it. I did way more stupid things before, but now I feel that I am out of their control, and I will not let it happen again. Or at least I hope so. Nevertheless, I am sitting and trembling. Can not do anything. I am trying to breath deeper, but my whole body keeps shaking. Head is empty. Yet, I feel same hopeless and in danger as I was feeling when I had to deal with these lawyers. Phone starts to ring. It is lying on a table, and I can see that number is not in phone book. I have to use both hands to pick it up and answer. Otherwise, my hands are shaking just too much, and I would not be able to handle it. I collect myself and answer in as calm voice as possible.

ME (thinking) Must be scammers
