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.
Got a call from 201 200-9999 this morning at 8:30 AM. Man with a heavy indian accent and told me my phone number had been selected to win a $200 free gas card and he really wanted to help me save my hard earned money. He would be sending me a package to explain everything and just wanted to confirm my address. I did give him my address, (very stupid) and then he told me I would only have to pay a $2 shipping fee and asked if that would be okay. I told him sure but I was not giving any cc# over the phone and asked him how it was going to bepaid. He then sprelled some words that I could not understand but the jest was that it was very secure and he understood that I didn't to give my cc # over the phone but I had nothing to worry about and any plastic card number would work. How stupid do these guys think we are. Thats when I said no thank you and hung up. I then went to the internet and entered the number he called from and got this site. Boy am I glad I hung up. I just hope they don't keep calling back as appears to be the case in so many of the posts.
I don't answer any call that doesn't have both name and number come up on ID.
This number never leaves a message, but they stay on the line with voicemail for a moment, like they don't realize. You can hear a 'call center' atmosphere in the backround. Sounds like a room of people talking on the phone.
A woman with an Indian accent repeatedly calls and asks for the CEO, his assistant, his email, MY email...every time she calls I tell her the same thing. She also calls from (210) 280-8487, the company name given was American Registry. I just hang up now, obviously No doesn't work. Ridiculous.
They called telling me I had a glitch on my computer that needed repairs. For $109.00 a tech. would fix it and give me a systems warranty for 1 full year for that price. They were insistant with broken English. I asked several times who they were with and each time they mumbled to the point in their Indian accent that I told them NO!!!!!!
