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.
Yup I had the exact same number and caller id come up at my home also. I listened for a minute, they said they have some sort of message from my computer that told them I was infected with a virus or something. I told them that I wasn't interested in whatever they were doing and hung up. Makes me mad. I didn't fall for their little scam but I'm sure others will. It'd be fun to be able to reach through the phone and choke 'em. GRRRRRR!
I just got a call, I live in Atlantic Canada, said there is a malicious infection going around in Windows, I asked for a number to call back and he said he couldn't give me one, just said he was from Windows and would like me to go through some steps on my computer to see if it is affected at all. I don't deal with people who don't give a proper business name or contact info, so said I didn't need his help and goodbye! Don't know how they got my number, but I am not on a no call list as of yet.
I got a call today, same thing, very heavy indian accent, i think he got mad when i told him i couldnt understand him lol, he told me about an infection going around in windows due to downloading and that my computer is showing them error codes, i just told him my computer was fine and hung up on him.
I see many others have got these scam calls too. A punjabi (East indian) accent, telling me I have a problem with windows, and wants me to download malware on the computer so he can have free access to the computer. Youtube has many videos on these scammers. I wish I could find a way to stop these calls - they call at least every 2 weeks or so.
