The first time they called the caller Told me my computer was sending them messages thst it was thorougfhly contaminated and that all my personal information was in jeopardy. all i had to do was give them my credit caed number and they could correct the problem and this would enable them to prosicute the hackers planting these viruses. (My computer crashed several months ago and hasn't been used.) I continued to question the caller who insisted he was reading th messages from my computer as we spoke. When I told him my computer had crashed months ago, he hung up.
They called again a month later with the same song and dance. When I told him it was funny that my computer was reporting a virus when I didn't have a computer and he hung up again.
The third time, I stopped him and told him I was going to report this number, he hung up. I called the number and it is a fax machine.
The same guy has called my father, too. My dad is the one who warned me about this caller, but I didn't believe him.
How do we stop these people. The number says it is from Montreal, but the mas sure sounded Arabian/Indian.....
