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.
Just received a call also from this number asking if we used Windows and mentioned a problem with Windows and he did speak with an accent. We told him that this was a scam He then provided a company name which was Tareyour PC and the phone number he said he was calling from was 289-275-0314
I received a call from this number this evening. The person could not be understood at all. Kept jabbering about my operating system and wanted me to go to my computer. I told him that my IT person would take care of any issues with my computer and he said that a tech would not be able to take care of my computer. I laughed and said that there was no way that I was going to let him do anything with my computer and hung up. So incredibly annoying.
Caller w/ an Indian accent and lots of background noise (like in a busy room) called about my Windows OS needing to be check for viruses. He asked me to go to my computer and follow his directions. I said no, my computer was adequately protected and hung up.
Just received a call from this number. Male with Indian accent claiming to be from Microsoft. Claimed to have a report from my computer with detected malware and spyware. I asked fort he time stamp on the report and he had no idea what I was talking about So I told him that his call was BS because Microsoft has a time stamp on all reports and that he was trying to scam people. Then I hung up. Caller ID listed the name as MGL BPO. No idea what that could possibly mean. Just glad I got the call instead of my elderly mother or hysterical brother.
