Send us money immediately, or we'll call the cops. Not nice cops either, but really ugly, bad-tempered ones with illegally-modified tasers and broken CCTV in the interrogation cell. Believe us, we can do that. Love and kisses, Microsoft.}

"It's no use switching your transmission off, Jenkins, I've been monitoring all your computer activity, and I also have 24 hour GPS-linked CCTV footage of every movement you made, since the second you signed your contract of employment, so yes: we know about what you've been doing with Sandy from marketting in the stationary cupboard and yes, we know what you got up to in Amsterdam last year. You're fired. That information has already been entered into the network and shared around the internet, so you'll be blacklisted by every potential employer before you're even considered for interview for the rest of your life. Given the massive unemployment rates caused by the the increasing autonomy of modern computers, I doubt you'll ever work again. You won't even get cash in hand work, since notes and coins were phased out completely and replaced by more easily-taxed and monitored forms of electronic money. Have a nice day.
