Person with strong accent asked if he was talking with some name, not mine. I said it was a wrong number and then he wanted to talk with the person responsible for my computer. He said that he had been affected by some type of very serious problem, and implied he was calling from Microsoft. He asked me to turn on my computer, at which point I told him not to call again and hung up. I've received one more call that I did not answer.
Ever hear the term "common carrier" ? The phone company has ZERO liability in this situation. Much like 800notes has no liability when you say something actionable here.
Foreign man called 7/3/10 and wanted to know what kind of computer I had. He then was telling me that Microsoft was offering me some technical assistance free for 1 month for $9.99. If it's free, then it doesn't cost $9.99. I kept telling him that I wasn't interested and we were on the do not call list. Says he wasn't trying to sell me anything he was giving it to me for $9.99
