Phone call indicating numerous error messages had been received from my computer and the caller wanted to help me fix the issues over the phone with access to my computer.
I just received this call as well...on my land line. We never use that number for anything. Suspicious for sure! Came up as "unavailable" but I told him my battery was dying and I asked for the number I could call back - then looked it up.
Haha I got the same call. Took him 5 seconds before he said hi, and I got skeptical from there. Plus it ain't 1-800# . He said my computer is illegally downloading programs without my awareness and he wanted me to go on computer even tho I told him I'm not by it. He said he'll call back, I asked why he's calling from a 209 area code to which he hung up after having nothing to say. Can't the feds get on his [***] already and get rid of him already??? Btw this guy didn't have accent.
I received a call, sounds like a guy from India, saying I called about my computer, and I told him that I did not make any calls about my computer, that I was on the "do not call" list, and to leave me alone, and hung up on him. I knew it had to be some sort of scam operation.
I had a call today and told the person I spoke to that I already had new windows and doors and when he replied no no it is about the windows on your computer and I said oh no I dont want a computer on my windows I prefer to open and shut them manually - he hung up!!!!
