Indian accent says he is from Dell Support. I told him mine was fine and hung up. Found this number on other site also saying from Microsoft. Block this number !!
Yes, he said he was from Microsoft, although I was suspicious, I wanted to see what he would say, so I went as far as getting on a web site with him where an .exe file was automatically downloaded which he was "guiding" me to click on so that he would "help" me on line.. It actually was a file that would allow him to take control of my laptop..
Guy called saying my Dell computer has problems, e.g., "more than half of my background services are not working." He was trying to make me run some program off my computer. Pretty quickly figured out this was a scam. His accent sounded more Chinese than Indian. I indulged him a little bit to be sure he wasn't IT, but after he became very short and hostile with his words, I just hung up.
I have received 7 calls from this number since 4-19-2016. No one leaves a message or answers. I am on the Do Not Call list so I will be filing a complaint about these scammers.
Just had a call from a person representing Dell And he has a heavy East Indian accent. He said that they needed to get into my computer and work on it. I immediately told him to get lost. This is a SCAM so protect yourselves.
