A con artist just called claiming he was from Google and that, because they were "trying to fill some openings in our sector," we had "kind of a rare opportunity" to get our website ranked first on Google and Yahoo! First for our "sector." Whatever our sector is. I, personally, have not the slightest idea. (Okay, "Explosion Law," maybe?)

I just said, "No thanks," and hung up, but now I'm regretting it. I should have put him on speakerphone, turned on Sound Recorder, and seen how much I could get out of him.
I present to you the Concerned Boyfriend/Husband Clarity Toolset. In ascending order of creepiness, the list includes a pocket recorder, a phone tap, a hidden camera, night vision binoculars, and a GPS tracker. I guess he's recommending you put it in your SO's frigging car?

"Concerned" is such a fabulous euphemism.

I remember reading an interview with a private detective about this sort of stuff. He said that the men who wanted him to tail their wives/girlfriends to see if they were cheating were almost always wrong, while the women doing the same to men were generally right. Other gender combinations were not discussed.

Edit: After TinEye-ing the profile picture, I think this guy's probably just screwing around; that seems to be the image in question's primary use? I mean, we can hope, anyway.
