So I have an account on care.com for dog walking service and got a text message from this number asking met to email her sister who is looking for a dog walker. I emailed and got a response that was very detailed and basically saying they wanted to hire me to walk there two dogs when they moved to this area. They would send a cashier check ahead of time as the dogs might get there before they do and so on.... Well I'm thankfully aware of scams like this and hope this helps someone make the decision that it's to good to be true and they are scamming you for money. Even if your bank accepts the check about 7 days later it will deny it and your bank account can be negative by thousands of dollars. They will try everything to get you to send them money as fast as possible because of this. Be aware! You work hard for your money, don't let people do this to you!!!
This number called my UK landline ay 10:07 today. The caller identified his company as 'Public Views', but when asked for his phone number he hung up!
Obviously a very dubious outfit if they refuse to give their phone number. I have caller ID so already knew the number that had called.
Man called from this number claiming to provide tech support for computer, he verified how many computers and users in the house. Then he said a senior rep will help me. Then the senior rep came and provided a fake name and asked me how old the computer was. I said 2 years old and then the guy asked me what I see on the screen. After that I heard him say a few words in Hindi/Urdu and he hung up.
This number called earlier this morning and there was no response when I answered, then they called just now and my husband answered. He has no patience on the phone and when the Indian guy started to ask him questions he just hung up!
