FantasistsEddie Spunkbubble says: I used to know a sad case who fancied himself as a bit of a 007 and bragged that he always carried a loaded 9mm pistol in his attache case "just in case". Overheard by an off-duty copper, he was asked to make good on his claim. A packed lunch, red face and a stern warning "not to act the twat" and he never did it again. Tell us of Walter Mitty types.

One of us used to get one of those calls every week at a place I used to work. We came up with the following 'script' which put them off for good.-'Sorry, we don't use the Windows operating system at home, I only use it at work. You're lucky to catch me on my day off, did you try this number yesterday? No one was here then. I work for the Metropolitan Police's e-crime unit and we all use Windows there. Maybe you're thinking of those PCs? They do run quite slowly if I'm being honest.'
-'er, OK sir.'
-'Maybe if I can take your contact details I can call you from there tomorrow, that way I'll instantly be able to tell where you are contacting me from as well, that should make the whole process easier, shouldn't it?'
-click- beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.
