He gave us this number, and I was able to call it up and talk to one of the heavy accented persons working at this scam sham. The number is a Liverpool, NY / Syracuse, NY area code: 315-944-2628. My wife treated them like the Nigerian princes seeing if they would send 100k to get 2 million. I basically spoke really loudly and told them I couldn't hear them a number of times telling them to speak up. At one point in all of shenangians, this guy said do you think I am a fool? And at another point, when he said there was a problem with my computer. I said holy s*** really loud. My wife almost peed her pants, because she was laughing so hard.
they say they are microsoft windows and wanted to gain access to my computer through ammyy.com in order to help me speed up my computer and remove malware
I just received a call from this same indian. the number did not come up on caller ID, but when I asked what was his number, that's what he gave me. Their line of jibberish sounds so bad, I can't imagine anybody falling for it. I started to laugh and said, so you're actually going to try to tell me you work for microsoft? He hung up.

I just got the same call from some indian sounding guy, saying that my computer is sending out error messages, so I had some fun with him. Told him I am a IT person and nothing is wrong with my computer. He hung up very quickly.
I got the same call from a Indian accent guy claiming he is tech support for Windows and my computer is sending out wrong signals and he is calling to help me to walk thru my issue. When I asked to verify him, he gave me this number and when I prompt him for more information, He hung up on me.
