Got a call similar to mic. Luckily family had been using computer when there were the so called problems he was talking about. I repeatedly said I had no such problem. Amazingly enough, by the time I talked to others and learned we had those problems, they had disappeared.
I received the same call that Jen and Mic received. It was a female caller with a heavy Indian accent.There was a lot of talking in the background as though she were at a call center. She claimed that she was from Cyber Securities and that my computer had been hacked. She wanted me to turn the computer on and give her information from certain files. I hung up. There was a call a minute earlier from Private 1 and there was no answer when I said hello. She just called again from Private 1 before I could finish this message.
Got call from 2095551213 answered to hear heavy Indian accented voice telling me my computer had been hacked. Said it was ok and hung up. Obviously, this is a ploy to hsck into your computer.When you call # back you get message saying "your call cannot be completed as dailed".
Do not fall for this one.
Got a call and did not pick up and no msg. Thanks all for posting now I know when I get a call from this number or " Dir ASSIST CA" it is a SCAM. I see people are outsmarting these idiots thanks to "whocalled.us" and 800notes and all these sites that let people check the number from these scamers. I will block this number.
