Same MO. Didn't catch on at first, but when I realized the charge was to some company other than microsoft (which is who they said they were calling from at first) I cancelled the charge with my cc co and unplugged my computer. At substantial expense I then had everything taken off my computer and reinstalled. Don't fall for their line. Thie phone number does not ring. It automatically disconnects and you get the recorded message phone co message "If you want to make a call,,,,,".
Exactly as described by Rita above. Indian accent, called about 6 times at least today. After opening all those windows in my computer I was at a window in my Systems folder with many warnings. He wanted me to press a particular key combination on my keyboard, which was the moment I refused. Said he would send me a program (advanced windows care v2, which obviously exists in fact) to create a report. With that report he would repair my computer and his technician would then send an invoice to me. Called back three minutes after I hung up, from different number. He gave me his name "John Miller" - (one of thousands....) and his employee ID "12347" to encounter my doubts.
Hands off!
Well unfortunately I did fall victim to this scam artist and gave out vaulable info and most likely gave acess to my computer please beware he was a young guy with an accent may have been Indian telling that my computer had a aulreona virus or some sort like that and I needed this soft wear to clean out my computer which I did purchase and they attempted to inter my account lucky my bank caught on to this and notified me because it was out of my area and for a large amount if u get that call hang up rite away

No one here is calling you. 800notes is not associated with these cybercriminals, who are determined to get control of your computer and steal your personal information. Your best bet is to invest in a call blocker.
