Can anyone give me a link to a video where a very entertaining
American woman receives a scam call saying her computer has a virus
and is about to crash, when she asks if she should wrap it in airbags?

You might mean "IRLRosie" on Youtube. That sounds like the sort of
thing she does. She's a voice actress who enjoys winding up scammers
by wasting as much of their time as possible by pretending to be
clueless old ladies or foreigners with impenetrable accents and so on.
Rod.

It's not IRLRosie. I have seen her too. The one I am thinking of
relates specifically to a call received where the caller says the
computer will crash and the woman utters the unforgettable line about
whether she should surround it with airbags.
