Strung along this number for a while, takes you to a c drive that shows when has some trouble connecting to the internet (standard occurance in some home accesses) to try to prove that you system is going to collapse, tells you to go to www.supportwindows.tk. The page is for an outfit called ComputerSupport that wants to take your money. The person on the phone tried to get me to save their software -- that would give them remote access to my computer. That's where I stopped playing along. Shame on them. Their grandmothers should have inflicted on them what they try to inflict on others.
Just got a call from this number to tell me he was calling from windows and that he was going to help me. When i started to question him, he became rude, that is when i hung up
Same call, but I was able to get to a supervisor since my "issue was so bad" When questioned he gave me a number to call in Ottawa, 613-699-8008 to prove he was from Windows and is a windows partner.
