Received several persistant calls from 315 385-4103. Said he was with Microsoft Windows and that my computor has been sending error messages to Windows. He needed me to turn on my computor and confirm the computor licence number, which I didn't, and I had him call a number that I have call display on thinking I could get his number, but only private number came up. He said he was in Seattle, Washington, yet the phone number he gave, 315 285-4103 is listed as Clayton, NY. I'm guessing it's a scam. This guys name was Jordan, also spoke very fast and very very poor English, and his bosses name is Mr. Jones. Not to original is it.
I also received two calls from this guy, each time I was downloading updates from Microsoft Update program, twice in a row about 5 minutes apart. How did he know I was accessing Microsoft? The guy tried to get me to stop any open programs, find the Windows key in lower left corner, press that and the letter 'R' at the same time, then I would enter my license number for Microsoft. I told him no, i wasn't comfortable doing that, but could I call him back. He said he was with Microsoft Tech Department, he was a Tech Rep and his name is John Martin. He had a lot of trouble with English, it was difficult to even understand the phone number. So, I looked up the number in reverse and I guess I'm not the only person he called. I seem to remember hearing from him last year too. Beware of the East Indian or Pakistan accent and a bad connection.
same stuff ....Accented guy ...problems with my computer + told him that I would contact local BBB and police to verifiy his exsistance. the number was reversed to Clayton NY....Do not do anything this guy tells you. Microsoft does does not work this way
I got a call from another number I didn't trust. So I told them I was busy and would like their number to call me back. He gave me 315-285-4103. He said he was from Microsoft and my computer had been hacked and he would help me fix it. That's when I told him I was busy as I didn't trust him. Spoke with an accent and very quick and hard to understand
