Got the same above message - Jars Support 201-338-6180 Tech name Sarnk from London Ontario - Canada
Service provider for MicroSoft...we had several virus on our computer.
I'm in Toronto and just got the call. I managed to get their number (201 338 6180) and company name, Jars Support. They said they were calling from "Waterloo, Canada." When I told them that I knew that 201 isn't the area code for Waterloo, they told me I was wasting THEIR time! Total scam.
Same as Caroline. I am an IT guy so I went along for the ride. They told me they could fix my PC (which is new and clean) for $90. I called him on it and told him he was scamming people who don't know better. I told him I was filing a complaint with the BBB, police and his company. He asked me not to as he might lose his job. I said that was not my problem since he is participating in a scam. He then threatened me by saying he would come to my house and steal my computer. Hilarious.
If you are in Ontario, please call the OPP and report the number. They have this company on file.
