This number called claiming to be the IRS asking for a person that wasn't even me saying that there was a lawsuit against me for tax evasion. Well, I already paid my taxes and the person you are asking for isn't me. And, why do you sound so angry scam artist person? First of all IRS doesn't call first they send letters, then they'd probably call. Secondly, you're heavy hispanic accent gave you away as a scammer. And, you called from a State that I don't reside in, if you were the IRS you'd be calling from my own state. Silly scammers, hope they get you!!
Same thing. Computer hack. Once hung up on, the fool called again and said nothing. My caller ID shows Supportdept PCC. Find it hard to believe that with the tech. advances we have today that this fool can't be traced and have his phone shoved up his back side. Just a thought.
The same number 1-360-633-9199, called today at 4:43 p.m. from Silverdale, Wa (Washington state). I don't have to tell you what this probably means :|
Indian man going on the same old spiel about how "your computer has a virus"
For those of you that may be experiencing this sort of thing for the first time, Microsoft themselves does not call you or have a third party company call on their behalf.
So if someone has called you saying that they work for Microsoft (or "Windows" lol) or that their company works for Microsoft and your computer has a virus that is sending them error reports: it is a scam. DO NOT give out ANY info to them.
Since we have multipurpose scammers, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) does not call for collection over the phone, if you get a call from someone claiming to work for the IRS. Hang up and contact the real IRS and report it.
Tamianth has provided some links above that will help you on your anti scam crusade.
The IRS customer service number is 1-800-829-1040, call them and let them connect you to an agent that handles scam reports, it happens a lot more than you may think.
Name on caller ID: Silverdale WA Number: 1 360 633 9199
This was an obscene call. . . .I answered because I am job hunting. The language used was of the most horrible and obscene. I hung up as he was speaking. Spoke with an accent, I cannot say what it was but it was not European. Probably middle eastern or south Asian/Indian. I was upset. Also, I could hardly hear him at first then the volume increased without me pushing any buttons on my handset. They are probably tracking these web sites to see what is written and then change the name on the caller ID and have a laugh. Well, I am sure they believe in Karma. Beware!
I hope that I didn't start something here. These a**holes have been calling non-stop for months. IRS scam and Microsoft computer (dangerous files) scam. I told him to go f*** off -- he unleashed on me and I returned the 'compliments'. Question for readers of this blog -- I am expecting a rash of annoyance calls now because of my vulgar verbosity with this
jerk. Any tricks that I can use to annoy them even more?
