I just told Technocare's Roger Coale (obviously from the Indian subcontinent) to go and jab it in his Punjab! There were 3 expensive plans I could select from to protect my computer.
My computer just needed protection from his scam. I was to go to my event viewer log and tell him how many errors or warnings were there. I gave him a random number - over 40 - he wanted to transfer me to Peter.
We need immigration reform to prevent these foreign scammers from entering our country. Too bad this is not what our illustrious Congress has in mind.
Man with thick accent said he was from Microsoft Windows and that my computer was sending error messages because I had downloaded a virus. If I had taken the bait, I can guess what might have come next. I told him to bugger off and hung up.
Peter called me too. Wanted to give me control of my computer! Gave me the name of his company 24 Technocre Windows Support. Said his number was (914)290-4992
Foreign accent. Supposedly calling from Microsoft; they're "receiving error messages" from my computer & want to "assess & fix" by first gaining access to my computer. Interesting they're receiving messages yet they want "access". How do you spell SCAM?
