Who called from 4159927915

you must work for this company moron. I am filing a complaint against them and I hope all goes through with my harrasment complaints

I have been receiving calls from this number for a good while and, in fact, just hung up from one and then searched the number finding these posts.  As other have said, the accent appears to be east indian... on a more interesting note, these calls always take place within a day that I have made an online purchase using my credit card.

I should add that he always states he is windows support and is contacting me concerning my "slow internet connection"  The first time he phoned he attempted to walk me through a "solution" when I realized how utterly stupid I was to even be talking to him.. I recognize his voice now and just hang up but it is very irritating... My husband feels he was attempting to ways to "get into our computer" to get credit card information...

yes i was scammed buy these guys

The Prince George RCMP would like to warn the public of recent fraud attempts in the community.

The latest scam reported in Prince George involves a person calling residents to report that their computer is not functioning properly or that they are promoting a new program to make their computer better. The computer owner allows access to the computer remotely, via the internet. The fraudster states that he is doing a “scan” and fixing or up grading the computer. The fraudster is actually installing “spy ware” or other malicious software that will capture sensitive data such as banking information, dates of birth, user names and passwords. These fraudsters often use company names that most people are familiar with.

At the conclusion of the call, the scammer requests a credit card number and may even ask the victim to send payment via a wire transfer company. On checks with the bank a couple hours later, the fraudster had already attempted to apply for a credit card with the information he obtained from accessing the victim’s computer. Wire transfers cannot be traced or recovered by the police.

Police would like to remind the public that allowing someone to remotely access your computer is extremely dangerous and can leave you vulnerable to a variety of frauds. Reputable companies do not require payment via wire transfer. Unless given access by the computer owner, there is no way that someone else can know whether your computer is functioning properly or not.

The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre has received over 350 similar fraud reports since the attacks started occurring in eastern Canada in February 2011. Credit card transactions or wire transfers have been made for up to $500.00 in each of these cases. As the telephone solicitors are from foreign countries, prosecution is unlikely.
