  • Product support had a procedure for customers demanding to speak with Bill Gates.
  • Customers were transferred to a special internal number pretending to be Bill Gates's office.
  • The fake office would take messages but never actually forwarded them to Bill Gates.
  • Support would later follow up, claiming Bill Gates had asked them to contact the customer.
