This fake command prompt can be used instead of the real windows command prompt in order to waste the tech support scammers time.

It is based upon the windows 7 command prompt, but is not noticeably different from the command prompt in most other windows versions.

Many commands commonly used by scammers, such as tree, netstat and powercfg are emulated in this, but they provide results that the scammer would not be expecting, for example, the tree command draws an ASCII tree, while the powercfg command comes back with no errors, no warnings and no informational - every time, without fail.

Commands not included all come back with the usual error as displayed for invalid commands in the real command prompt, however other commands can be added.

Features

  • netstat
  • powercfg
  • tree
  • cd
  • dir
  • all others return error
