I keep receiving a call from this number and there is no one on the other line. Very disruptive while I am working. I told them to not call our number back again until the sun exploded.
Caller ID "Trikon". He wanted to know "who made the business decisions." I asked for specific information about the purpose of his call which he would not give. I told me just to take the message! I told him I didn't take messages without proper identification. He bacame very rude and aggressive. It's days like this that I earn my keep as telephone gatekeeper. He got the telephonic "bum's rush" as I like to call it.
Got a call from a woman who barely spoke English telling me that she is from Microsoft Tech support and started asking me to open this and open that, then told me to go to windowslivesupport.com which is some website running out of India. They then started asking me a whole bunch of other crap and they put me on hold. I did a whois in the website and knew right away and that was that BEWARE IT'S A SCAM
Got another call from this number from a preson who could barely speak English. He started to state that he was from Microsoft Tech and then I hung up on them. This is a scam
I have had a call twice from someone who says that they are from Windows. Asked if my browser was slow and the first time they said that my computer was in jeopardy. What a pile.......!
I hung up. Should have given them a piece of my mind. Can't these people get an honest job?
Called me, none of them spoke real english, they were all habibs, not to be racist. They told me to go sit at my computer that has windows installed. I told them that I have three computers, and all computers these days have windows installed. They told me to go into my computer, then a bunch of other files, then to see how many error reports are showing... I did none of which and sat across the room from the computer the whole time. I asked the person to transfer me to someone who is american and they put me on hold. They did, for a while and when they came back i asked what the purpose of the phone call was. They again informed me that i have viruses on my computer. i got a know it all attitude with them and the lady got mad and yelled and put me on hold and then it hung up on me.
Scam- for sure. don't even go over to your computer when they tell you to. I don't know- maybe they can hack into your computer while you do what they tell you to do.
