championed by microsoft founder bill gates. taxing robots that take human jobs. >> certainly something we'll take a look at. as we lose workers, we'll be losing tax revenue. >> what we absolutely need to do is manage this transition. >> reporter: paul sapo believes robots are caught in the middle of a broader debate, how to manage an economic upheaval that may put millions out of work, as companies automate their jobs. >> it's not machines taking jox per se. it is economic decisions being made by powerful individuals running companies. >> reporter: other san francisco supervisors have proposed banning delivery robots from city streets, as companies test everything from self-driving big rigs to delivery drones. a payroll tax could pay for

however, our viewer was not out of the woods. dan had just been on the phone with hewlett packard techs, so the next call seemed legit. >> they send you got some signals from our computer. >> reporter: it was a scammer. but dan didn't know. he let the caller take remote control of his computer. >> my computer got locked down. he said we need to buy this special software. >> reporter: the man said it would cost $450. >> i expected him to get a credit card number from me. they didn't. they asked for i-tunes gift cards. >> reporter: the man told him to buy $450 worth of i-tune cards and called him back. >> so i bought these things and i didn't think anything of it at the time. >> reporter: however, later, he wondered why hp would want apple karsd. he asked the man on the phone. >> he said we work for hp, so we

can't buy another software directly. >> reporter: that's when dan realized it was a scam. he hung up. now he was stuck with a disabled computer and $450 worth of i-tunes. >> i'm 75 years old. i don't use a lot of i-tunes. >> reporter: he went to an apple store to return them. >> they said no, you can't refund them here. >> reporter: he couldn't use them to buy i tunes or anything else. >> they're only good for i-tunes. >> reporter: we contacted apple. the company said dan should have been allowed to exchange his cards saying, if a customer reaches out to let us know they mistakenly purchased the wrong card, we work with them to resolve the issue. also, apple is now posting this warning on those gift cards. if someone asks you to pay for something with i-tunes cards, it's almost certainly a scam. and apple swapped dan's cards

for store cards. >> i beat a track down there. >> reporter: now, get this, after the scammer sung up, dan's computer didn't work at all. however, he contacted his own tech support company, which was able to unlock the computer with a few commands. so now all is well. i want to hear from you. my hotline is open weekdays 10:00 to 2:00. of course, you ca always reach me on facebook and abc7news.com. >> what bad timing for him. >> any one of us could fall for that. >> any one of us may faint with the hot weather these days, huh? >> spencer has the forecast. >> today's triple digit heat is giving way to mild to warm overnight conditions. i trust tolerable conditions. here's a look at live doppler 7 hd. overnight, a little fog at the

year. nice neighborhood. but it's expected he's going to take several million less, allowing the warriors to resign iguodala. here's the gm. >> i think he's happy. i think he was, you know, happy with the season personally and obviously for the team. i don't know that i could have gone any better for him. so just looking forward to doing whatever is fair. but we certainly want him back. and i think he wants to be back. you know, when you win, those exit interviews are pretty good. >> a report surfaced via the vertical today that 33-year-old andre iguodala is considering looking elsewhere in free agency, likely a negotiating ploy to get some deals on his next deal or more years on his next deal. stark contrast to everything else reported. iguodala even dropped a major hint. listen to this exchange.

>> maybe one of the saddest times of my life is when i left the arena in oakland the other night, knowing full well i wouldn't be back. that's when you look at yourself and say hey, look, you can't be afraid if you take this job. and now, with the warriors, watch what they're doing. no one is going to beat them for a couple of years. that's our job to beat the warriors. that's the standard every team in the league has to look at today. >> you see the intensity in jerry. after a disastrous visit to colorado, the giants opened a four-game series in atlanta, riding a six-game losing streak, looking for any positives in a season that's circling the drain. pink and purple sky in atlanta. they had a 44-minute rain delay. bottom of the third, belt can't make the play. that would burn the giants. a couple batters later, this is to the gap in right center field. close play at the plate.
