Hello i am trying to mess with a scam page who say you have  a virus take control of your computer and show you windows errors and try and get you to pay out saying they are viruses. 

 

I wanted to mess with them so i set up a virtual machine running windows 10.  Sadly when they took control and he looked in device manger he could clearly see it was a virtual machine as my hard drive was named something like Virtual drive or something and hanged up. Is there any way i can make it look like it is a real Machine so he will not know and i can mess with them? Cheers

 

I am using Oracle VM Virtual box.

Um... You should not be chatting with people, and DEFINITELY not if they know such s***.

Otherwise, I don't think it's possible to make a Virtual Machine look like a different machine. Try using a boot cd or a boot usb stick.

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

No my question is they would just delete your OS and then what? They fucked with you, you did literally nothing to their day and let them troll you.

Dude they are scams and their initial intentions is to make your day worse and they would probably do that.

 

I don't see how you are "messing" with them?

You can put an OS, like Linux, on an USB stick. It will function like a small harddrive. While booting in your computer, you can press F8/F12 (not sure which), and than select USB/removable media to boot from it.

If i waste there time they do not get payed. There job is not to mess up peoples computers it is to get money out of them. Trust me i watched a video with a guy trolling them for an hour.

I don't see what you have against OP. They're wasting the time of people that make money scamming people who don't know better. I'd say OP is doing the word a service. :P
