We're increasingly dependent on technology. Our business and personal lives rely on it, but as you've probably noticed, it's unreliable. They promise it'll get better, but it usually gets worse. Our computers are slow, so we end up squinting at smartphones. We live in constant fear that something's going to happen to our personal data. So we're scared into paying for fake protection that proves useless when disaster strikes.

The jokers we pay to fix our stuff have no clue what they're doing, so they wipe out our precious photos and tell us to buy a new machine.If we only had someone to explain it all in Plain English, so we can start protecting ourselves. If only, we had... The Computer Exorcist Podcast, with your host, Marc-Anthony Arena!

This show is for intelligent people who are intimidated by technology, and think it's somehow their fault. Once people learn what the industry is doing to them, they're ready to get torches and pitchforks.

We expose Update Attacks, Fake WiFi, Cloud Control, and many more industry scandals that are designed to keep the gravy train flowing. Oh yeah, we also do a little bit of scambaiting! We torment phone scammers so you know how they operate.

    Tonight on CEP: More phone scammers!

    • First, a typical Support Scammer called me claiming she was Microsoft and that my computer was downloading viruses from the Internet. She urged me to check the activity logs on my computer, so I told her all about the last time I chopped logs as a kid. I took her for a ride that drove her batty until her boss intervened.
    • Next, a scammer tries to sell me diabetic test strips. When he asks how often I test my blood sugar... well, I tell him my plan. When he asks for my address, I start eating some soup and drive him up a wall.
    • Finally, another Jamaican-style lottery scammer calls me up and informs me I won $2.5M. Of course, I have to pay him 3% "taxes", which he calculates as $25,000. We do a dance for a while and then it gets wild.

    153 "I already had a BMW"
    2026/09/27

    Tonight on CEP: We torment some scammers! I have a recording of a Jamaican-style scammer who called me and said I won a new car! I told him I don't want another BMW because, frankly, I had one in the past, and it broke down on me all the time. Wait til you hear his explanation!!

    The guy told me that before I can obtain my winnings, I NEEDED TO PAY HIM 10% for "tax obligations"! A...ha.

    We did a little tango regarding the proper percentages and bargained over amounts. I take them on a most beautiful dance that leaves him stewing in disbelief.

    So I hope you love the episode, and feel free to keep sending in the love letters and hate mail. Get the book at thecomputerexorcist.com

    Today on CEP! Retired car dealer, author, and talk show host Dom Genova joins us to wrap up our conversation on avoiding crooked car dealers.

    • Having experience as a Big 3 exec and later on owning small-town car dealerships, he's sat on both sides of the desk, and his book shares his insight with you. This parallels my career, where I come at the IT industry from the consumer's perspective, being on your side of the desk.
    • Some of them have a "bug zapper" business model! Attract people to the dealership and then zap em!
    • Dom's thoughts on Tent Sales: If putting them in a tent down the street lowers their prices...
    • Fake Monroney stickers!
    • What is an "ad car"?
    • When an automaker promises to donate money to some charity, whose pocket does that money come from?
    • FREE TV or FREE CRUISE?
    • What's the #1 mistake made during a car deal?
    • Dom's 4 Corners
    • Finally, we read an article exposing what information your car is collecting about about YOU. That data is sold to third parties, who "package" them into "data products" and resell them.
