I hate the fact that after 30 seconds of accent and very few recognisable words they tell you there name is, John, Paul, George they seem to stop short of Ringo.
I would be interested to know if they change the names for the country they are dealing with, "Hello my name is Seamus " must be hilarious in an Indian accent or Emlyn in Wales or Tam in Scotland. I have to admit one of the funniest things I saw that messed with my ears was 2 Chinese girls in Dublin with stronger Irish accents than my Old Man. A real double take moment. |

It seems to be a popular tactic, I deal with forum spam on a different forum and a majority of it is from Asia and they also give themselves Western names.

I got a call the other day and the bloke asked for me but pronounced my surname incorrectly which immediately tells me it is spam. He goes on to ask me if I lived at an address, so I said none of your business. Then he started talking about being involved in an accident, so I said "just F... O.." to which he replied as calm as you like "OK" and that was that.
It sounded like he was used to being told to F Off |

It could well be that they are simply 'localising' their real name to the local equivalent thereof. For example: Peter = Pietro = Pedro = Petr = Pierre.
So now you know that Henry is our version of 'Two Dogs'...A very common Indian name, I believe! |

Obviously without his surname.
