This company has been calling me for the past year and telling me that there is a problem with my computer which is a lie. I have requested that the y remove me from the list, there is always an Indian woman who calls, she has refused to do this and keeps insisting they can see an error on my computer in the past two days she called at 10.15pm on the 3rd, 12.15am on the 4th and 10.14pm last night. She is rude refused to tell me the name of the company and to remove my name and number. Please help I am at my wits end I have also reported this to the National do not call Registry. Their number always shows up as Private on my phone. What they are doing is illegal as I am on that Registry. Many thanks for your help I believe this is a scam of some sort

You're right--it is illegal. Unfortunately the people doing the calling are hard-core scammer/extortionists working out of India, and are beyond the reach of US law. There is no company name. Just a group of callers being paid by the person running the call-center. This scam has been around for awhile. And being criminals, the callers will ignore all requests made to them to stop calling.
Call blocker might be your best bet. Also, don't pick up on numbers you do not recognize.
