Technically you're a year too young to post on 800Notes. See its Terms of Service. Ideally you should have an adult you trust examine your system and/or take it physically to a real PC tech.
Often a fake tech will fool you into letting him access your system and show you its many "errors" and "viruses". In fact, those are normal, minor, and harmless things reported by your system as it does its business. Then will come the offer to "fix" what was never broken for a stiff price. The faker might take the money and run, or might do real damage to your machine. Either way, if you're fooled once, he or his buddies will call again hoping to fool you twice.
If you're lucky, after sifting your files the faker on the phone found no credit card numbers or anything worth stealing or reselling to his crooked friends, so he dumped you empty-handed. For all you know, the thief has installed something which hides from your virus scanner and snoops on what you're doing, so that over time you will give the criminals what they want.
To be clear, the "fixer" on the phone knows nothing about your system before he calls, and is not trained or qualified to work on anyone's computer. Usually he's someplace in South Asia, in a room full of fiends who are trying all day to steal from people who don't know how their computers work. What they are doing is against our laws in the USA. Heck, the cold phone call itself breaks the law. Why? You never asked him to call, you never knew him before he started hassling you.
The Federal Trade Commission and Microsoft have each issued warnings to explain this kind of fraud. They also have each taken several fake tech goons to court to stop them from harming more people. It's a good idea to tell them your story so that the fight may continue.

Strange call pretending to be from Microsoft tech support

This number repeatedly calls me each day. I do not answer unknown calls, they go to voicemail. Never left a message, they just keep calling. After looking up the number and reading others' posts, I'm glad I didn't answer.
Have been getting calls from this number between 8pm and 10pm. Tried answering to get my number off their list but no one responds. I wonder how to get them to stop. Also getting calls during the day with computer virus scam but Mom feigns senility. :)
