I've been getting calls, heavy accent, from the same number, saying they're from "technical support". I knew it was a scam since even a contractor will identify the manufacturer they represent. Out of curiosity, I questioned him.
Q: Why are you calling?
A: About your operating system.
Q: What operating system? What version?
They gave me a wrong answer. I said I don't use that. THEY hung up.
I've gotten 2 calls from this number. A man with a heavy accent says he's calling from "technical support". Even a contractor will identify a manufacturer. I figured it was a scam, but questioned him to make sure.

HE HUNG UP when I said I didn't use the operating system. I rarely answer callers I don't know but I phoned a friend in that state this week.
I have an old atrix 4g and was using it as a computer through the dock. The phone has been off for months but I clicked on my old text messages for the heck of it and seen outgoing texts from my phone to this number and a handful of others with last weeks date in them?!
