I don't have caller ID on my home phone but caught the number this week when it forwarded to my mobile. The name changes but the voice is the same "East Indian" sounding person. He usually asks for me by name and then says, "I'm calling from technical support on your computer." I have told him to remove me from his call list, hung up, yelled / cussed, asked him what company, asked to speak with his supervisor, laughed, and kept quiet listening to him repeat "hello" four time before he hangs up. He has been calling several times each day this week, often twice in a row if he got voice mail the first time, and has called in the past (seems like every few months). I don't get upset anymore and refuse to give up my power to this baloney, but I will look into reporting to the FCC after reading others' comments. My phone company cannot block because my plan is too old and not digital, so maybe it's time for me to upgrade. In the meantime, I remember coming across a Dave Ramsey show several years ago and him talking about handling collection agencies that don't follow the "do not call me" rule ... he said to get one of those air horns in a can and tell the caller that the next time they call you will blow out their ear drum. Sounds like a good idea for this one, too :-)
This number called me as well and asked me to connect to ammyy.com. I almost fell for this because I was really having trouble with my computer. I did not connect to ammyy.com. Luckily, I have a friend who is a computer expert. I am going to have him look at my computer to ensure that is has no malware on it. I am going to report it to the sheriff's department.
I just got the same call, a women with an asian accent told me that my pc has been sending lots of error messages to them and that it was a critical error. she said if i go on my computer she can show me what it is. i told her i couldn't at the moment and she hung up on me.
They called me and their representative said he was from Microsoft and that my computer was infected,
I stopped him at that point and asked where he was calling from and he said Florida,but my screen was showing new york. So I told him that from this point on I was going to record the call...he hung up.
Got a phone call from this number (caller ID said New York). When I answered there was a pause as I heard the busy commotion that is typical of an automated calling center. A man speaking broken English with an Asian accent picked up my call said he was from Microsoft, that my computer is sending error signals and that it might crash. He asked “are you on the computer now?” I told him I would have my husband call him back. He said to “call back at 786-600-1027 and ask for Mark Anderson or any of the technicians.” He SURE didn’t sound like a Mark Anderson.
