Last four digets of acct I transfered money too 9145 Googled the phone number and came up with nothing but people who paid them and never got service
Scam, scam, scam. I was downloading latest version of Java, which was necessary for a construction management cloud based program put out by Oracle. Watch what you click! Embeded in the download was an extra, unnecessary click which was a virus. Computer froze up and I could not do any work. Their solution popped up, but I was unsuccessful in downloading their fix. They called, and what do you know for $70 and more downloading my computer stopped freezing up. They wanted to get me on a plan for $226 for the year. I said no thank you. My computer still had difficulty going on line so I called in a local tech. I had their virus - Systweak is what the computer tech had to delete and/or cordon off to fix it. Microtec have now called me back twice (I am on their sucker list) trying to get me to let them download more. HA! Once bitten twice shy. Difficult to get off the phone with these guys, they do not like hearing a no.
Caller "Roger" with an Indian accent, claimed to be calling from MicroTech in Houston, TX to provide unsoliced tech support for a supposed problem with my computer. Phone number he provided on my request has area code 239, which is south Florida. I have had a series of phone calls from same scam. They refuse to stop even though I tell them every time that I am reporting them and not to call back. When will the FCC and law enforcement crack down on these people?
I just received a similar call, which I thought was very suspicious. I told him I was outside and could not get to my computer. He told me to call back to 239-247-5552 at Microsoft when I had my computer on, and his name was Ricky Sylvester. He had a very odd accent. I recognized the 239 area code as usually coming from telemarketers, so I told him we no longer had internet service. He then hung up on me.
I got the company name Microtec(h) Support, 855-593-3163, from a person who also sounded like he was from India but gave me the name "Alex Perez." We don't have any computers running on Microsoft operating systems, so I hung up on him after warning that I would report him to the government because we are on the "do not call" list. Then I went to the "do not call" website and made a complaint. Everyone here should do the same.
