I just got a call from these people telling me that I am getting a government grant and to go pick it up at Walmart. But first that want me to call 202 684 6332 for more instructions.
some one called from this # asking for my husband by name and with our correct home line #, called to say something about husbands computer, windows program? our computer sending ? to his computer,, ok I believe that so, I asked for his phone number to return his call and he gave me: 888-408-9660 no I will not call that number.
called ID listed his number from Seattle, WA
earlier this week same call, same computer problem but called ID listed # from 561-555-0141, FL, that site also had many complaints re: computer problems
seems the only problems are his.
I wonder how he knew my husbands name and our home line #
Call came in I do not have anyone I know at that area code. I never pick up and you should not either. If they REALLY want to talk to you they will leave a message. You can call back but I don't recommend that. They can see you are at home keep calling. Put your name and number on the DO NOT CALL LIST.
Got a call from this # heavy accent saying he was Technical Support and asked if my computer was on. I asked if they were the company that has the service contract and they said yes. They asked me to bring up a web site that showed I needed to purchase an IP Blocker for $149. I told them I didn't have that kind of money and then asked again who he was and he said the Geek Squad. I then called him a scammer and was going to report him to the government and he got irate using the F-bomb. I immediately hung up and ran a virus scan on my computer. Almost!!!! Be aware!
