I received multiple phone calls today from this number. When I finally answered they tried to tell me that my computer contained items that would put it at risk for contracting a virus. I stated over and over that there was nothing wrong with my computer and he continued to raise his voice at me calling me "MA'AM". I eventually hung up. Hope I don't hear back from this number again, and hope no one becomes a victim.
Verminous pests! Why o why can we not develop a device to simply Zap ! them thru the phone while it is ringing, so that this particular pest would never bother anyone again ????? This number, of course, is spoofed. A woman living in Southbury CT is named on the internet as the owner of this phone number. She undoubtedly has no idea that her phone number is being used by these thieving b*stards in India to pester people with nonsense about their personal computers! Please, somebody, invent the Zapper!!!
This particular incarnation of pest calls from India about our computers began on my home phone on May 20, and has been frequent on the call log ever since then. At least these jerks only call -- so far -- once a day! Caller ID is "SOUTHBURY CT"
They have been calling continuously and called twice this morning. I deliberately picked up the phone this time and didn't say a word, silence, silence for about 30 seconds and then they hung up. Unfortunately all the phone companies make money off of harassment and scams or they would do something about it. Once I block the number, they use another one.
Spoofed number. Scam phone call.
