i got a call today too ,but i'm new to my computer and i thought they will help me and i let them and gave then my visa number,that i shouldn't have done that ,well i'll be fine,that what i'm thought i was buying something that will protect my computer so it cost 79.99 canadian dollars.
These guys for 201 620 3170 have been calling repeatedly to tell me they are from MICROSOFT support and that my computer is sending alert messages to them and they need to fix it before my computer crashes. I asked him which computer because I have 4. He said anyone as long as they are on the same internet connection.
I asked what exactly he wanted and he repeated the same stuff without giving me a clear answer as what they wanted to do. I hung up on him. He called me back 2 more times, i answered he said it was urgent that I go to my computer and go to support.me .
At that point I realised they might be dangerous as they want to have remote access on my computer without knowing a thing about me or my system. Anyway, I told him I'd call him back so I could check them out and I found all of these scam reports. He told me his number is 201-620-3170 and his name Anthony Fernandez, although he sounded Indian.
Anyway, MICROSOFT needs to find these guys and put them in jail!!!!

Fellow with heavy east indian accent told me was calling urgently due to a major computer issue with my operating system.
Did not trust this as he wanted me to go into my computer--I am guessing to allow him accesss.
I questioned it and asked him what company he was representing to which he did not really have an answer. I told him I could not talk at that time and asked him for a call back number. He gave me this 201 number.
This is obvioulsy a big scam and caution all to not give anybody access to your computer in any way. He called yeterday too and I told him I had an apple operating system--told me must be the wrong number and hung up
Guy with Indian accent claiming to be 'Adam Foster' called from '012-345-6789' and gave me the number 201-620-3170. Asked me to turn on my computer so he could 'guide' me. Claimed to be from Microsoft and told me I had downloaded something that is compromising my Windows Operating system that needed to be removed from my computer.
