I too just received a call telling me there were problems on my computer (said it was from Microsoft); I asked for a number to call back and got 374-796 4489. Just looked up the number on the internet and it seems like it is not for real.... I did not call back.
Called me twice, identified company as "Global BC Tech," when I asked. My caller ID read 416.364.1111. The guy told me my computer was sending out viruses and Windows warnings and asked if I was sitting at my computer so he could fix it for me. I wasn't at my computer and if I were I wouldn't be dumb enough to give this heavily-India accented person access to my computer. When I asked for a number I could call back on, I was given 347.796.4489. After I disabled my caller ID, I called the 347 number, which was answered by a voice with the same thick accent who said "Computer Department." Sure walks like a duck, eh?!

I also got a call from a lady, and she said my computer got hacked , and we need to fixed that. She said if you are sitting near the computer I will go through and fix it.
I said I don't know about computer, please give me your phone number so my husband will call you back. She gave me this number 1-347-7964489
This number is constantly harassing me! He won't stop calling. I've already told him I've reported him to donotcall.gov and to enjoy his hefty fine. Obviously he doesn't care!
