been getting calls from 234-567-890 and now this showed up. thick accents and claim to be some 'temp payday cash'. said i owed $200 from a loan in 2008. never heard of them, never received any such loan, yet they threatened and said they would keep on calling and calling. i informed them i am reporting them and am doing just that, but this did not slow them down. thing is, they do have personal info and THAT is getting too close for comfort. i have been thru this phone scam before, reported them and they went away. they are back and this time, since they let slip information that obviously has been stolen or hacked, i have no choice but to call law enforcement as well as FBI, FTC, FCC and state's AG.
I received a call from this phone number with thick accent saying I have a computer that is connected to the internet and he found out from "the router services".... and indicated that my computer is affected with some virus and he will provide service to clean it up if I let him remotely access to my computer...!!!
I am on an Do Not Call list but he refuse to recognize the do not call registry...??? Looks like a scam.
I got the same call also and he said the same thing and i told how did you get my number and he went on saying i had a virus on my computer and i told him i already i had an antivirus set up on my computer from the government and he hung up on me. I said to him look did you try to hack my computer. i have a degree in mangement information systems. i nabbed him cold
These called with a thick accent, wanted to protect my identity. I asked where did you get my number, then they went on their to their stand by talking points. I asked where they are from, meaning business, and they said Redwood California.
