Caller had my name,said he was from Windows and needed to speak with the owner of home computer,I asked what I could help him with, he asked again for owner of Computer, I hung up. he tried calling back, I didnt answer 2nd time.
Call is from the Eugene, Oregon area and we don't know anyone from this number, no message left. I'm assuming it was a robo call, Never answer your phone if you don't recognize the number, your phone number will be automatically be put into a call list for anyone to try to sell you all kinds of junk. My elderly mother made the MISTAKE of answering her phone every time it rang and she was bothered for TWO YEARS from 7am to 9pm everyday! She had to change her lifelong telephone number of 60 yrs. What a nightmare! She had to learn to let her answering machine pick up to field the unwanted calls. Eventually, she paid for caller ID and has much better peace of mind!
A call from this number claimed to be from Windows Technical Support and needed me to open my computer, Claimed he was in Miami and my computer was being hacked. I needed to turn it on and he'd guide me through the steps to stop. I asked for a number to return the call and he said it would only go to a message board. I declined. I now clearly realize he was the hacker and he was very persuasive. He was hard to understand, with possibly a Middle Eastern or Indian accent. Beware
