Just got a call from 213-333-3206 claiming the whole "your gonna crash your computer" "using microsoft windows" "sending error reports" stuff. Told him it sounded like a scam and ended the call. Looked up the number and well you know the rest if you are reading this.
Received a call claiming technical support, representing microsoft and malware info sending error messages wanting me to go to my computer, told him it was not on wanted me to go, start up machine and follow his instructions, fat chance, told to go away.
These are scammers. I'm on the DNC list and have reported this series of calls to the FTC.
The ID on the 1st call read VERTEX 310-559-9211, the caller sounded Indian and said that my windows computer had a problem. I told him I'm on the do not all list and hung up, there are others this scammer has called -
The same guy called a few minutes later, but this time the phone displayed MGL BPO 213-333-2306 and I was told me would call me when ever he likes. Again I am no the only one he is calling -
After I hung up, he called yet one more time, this time the phone displayed TACCESS 206-397-1126. And yet again I'm not the only one getting calls from these scammers -
I just got another call from this numer I didn't answer ID said MGL BPO so I didn't answer. they left no message. I have goten calls from them before about wanting to fix my computer. How do we keep these scammers from calling us?
