I got a call from this number and when I answered, they said my computer IP address was sending out signals blocking their network. I said, "Oh, no! Give me your IP address so I can check that." Then they then hung up.
I got this call. Same Indian guy...Albert Green & his so called manager , Rex Cooper. Names don't even sound Indian. They could have at least made the name sound authentic. I pulled up the computer and everthing and did not go further. I asked him to verify the company by a website. He gave me windowscare.com...does not even exist.
I got a call from this number - the guy had a strong asian accent, yet was named Eric Simmons...hmm...
He stated to go to my computer and allow them to help clear up some viruses my computer was sending out.
The person was persistant, and I told him I was not in front of the computer, so asked for his number.
I researched the number and found it is a scam. Other co-workers have been getting the same calls. The number shows up as "anoymous" on the phone. I did check with my work IT department, and checked with MS customer support too. They all advised that this is a SCAM. Do not allow them access to your computer.
If anyone calls you from this number, its a scam. I knew it was the monute I could not understand anything the guy was saying. He said he was with Windows and tried to tell me my computer was having an error. I asked him what my ip address was and he gave me a number which I did not check but, when I started asking him questions he started saying things like "are you serious" and had a bad attitude. I told him to eff off and never call again. Be careful. Don't do anything they say.
I have just received a call from this scam artist, I don't know how they knew I had just bought a new computer and just got it running. I haven't even been on the internet yet. Mark from Window Care told me my computer was very infected and was sending him a message and it was urgent that I take care of this. The phone number that was given to me was 213-221-3528.
I got a call from "Adrian". He wanted his tech to access my computer over the internet.They walked me through a process they stated would show me where the viruses were, but it was just errors and warnings about things like Firefox crashing. I asked for a call back number and this is the number they gave. I told them I would rather take my computer in to have it looked at and hung up. It sounded like a scam, so i was happy to see all these other comments.
