I just got a call from this number. The guy gave his name and said he was calling from support and services at Windows computer, He said my computer was sending error messages to the www. He asked me to go to my computer. When I refused he got very angry and said don't you care about your computer. I said call me later. He was upset because we wanted an exact time to call back because this issue was urgent. I took his number and he gave me 315-791-442.
I got the same phone call today (sept.2nd) I did go on my computer but when something did not work he ask me my ID number. I refused and ask the phone number to call back, the name of the company and his name... the told me they were located in London UK. I spoke to 2 IT and they seem to have an english with asian accent... were they really in UK?
i got the same call this morning and i said that i don't speak English and ask to talk to someon who speak french and he got very upset the only think he want' s me to go on my computer so i refused and hung up!
I don't know the scam here but ignore and hang up. Do not offer any information. My 92 yr old father got this similar call yesterday - preying on the vulnerable. The cool thing is that my dad has a Mac and not Windows so he was able to dismiss him readily.
As for 315-791-4442 being in the UK - where is the Country code then? Actually it is in Troy, Alabama.
No one should get mad if they are a legitimate business at you the customer.
I hope that they call here, but then again - they won't listen to what I have to say.
