The call came from a payphone. Left a message (woman speaking in grave tones tells me I'm being sued by the IRS and to contact them immediately at 509 587 3082) After I finally stopped laughing I blocked the number. Glad I finally bought a phone system with robust call blocking capabilities. Can't imagine living without that utility. The DNC list is a joke and unlisted numbers no longer protect us from unwanted calls.
Got a call this morning from this # and a woman said someone downloaded a virus from the internet and wanted access to my computer to fix problem. It was such a coincidence because my step-daughter has been having problems with her computer a we think she did download virus 2 days ago and has been having problems with her computer. I could baring understand her voice as is sounded from India and I said it must be my step-daughter's computer and she just went quiet and hung up phone. Very strange!
got a call at 6:28 AM from some East Indian voice wanting to talk about my computer, actually argued with me that she did not think it was an inappropriate time to be calling!
Received a call in Halifax. Knew it was a scam immediately.
Lady said something was wrong with my computer. A yellow flashing light was showing some illegal activity and she could easily fix it. She spoke in a broken English accent. I could hear voices in the background. Her company is One Stop Solutions on Baker Street in Canada. When I asked what city, she said Canada. I asked if Canada was a city, her reply was it was a State. I informed her to review her geography. She then wanted to know if I wanted her help at which time I informed her she was a crook, she then said something I did not understand and hung up.

He called and told me I had qualified for a grant for home improvement. He said he was with U.S. Financial Resources. He said his name was Danny Brown, employee number 102686. The company Address was P.O. Box 333 Pleasant Grove Utah 84062. I just had to pay $3.87 to submit the final paperwork and I would receive money for home improvement. He then said if you could just supply me with your 16 digit card you will be paying with I will send you the paper work through your email and help you get the money you need to improve your home. I asked again for the name of the company and just started asking him to basically repeat everything back. I asked him if he worked for the United State's Financial Institution of Resources, he said "Yes, and if you do not wish to continue I will just terminate your application". After stumbling him up several times I then stated "I think your misrepresenting yourself". He became VERY HOSTILE. He stated that my mother was there performing sexual acts on him, That "HIS PEOPLE WAS GOING TO BLEED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DRY AND KILL MY FAMILY AND OUR PRESIDENT". He said "[***] OBAMA, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE YOU DIRTY [***] AMERICANS WAS GOINgG TO FUND THE MONEY TO KILL OBAMA". He told me to watch on Youtube and Yahoo and I would see the revenge of Osama Bin Laden's death. Something about places that where going to be bombed. He called back 4 times, one right after the next, and threatened MY FAMILY, MY PRESIDENT, GOVERNMENT, AND MY COUNTRY. I have all the numbers he called from the first came up Private Name-607-594-4642. Then they all came up PAYPHONE-607-594-4641, 512-495-9027, 607-733-6833, 516-746-9347.

That number was ALTON, IL - 681-462-3632
just received a phone call today from this number at 2:50pm saying that we had a problem with our computers but i am a network engineer and security analysis in the house and I run virus scan regularly. my mom was talking to them and she can hear a lot of talking in the background so she decided to play around with their heads by saying no one in the house owns a computer and she was 80 years old and lived in a nursing home then they hung up the phone. watch who is calling stating they are from a reputable computer company saying you have a virus which is a scam because the computer company would call they would send you a secured email using an https:// to show it is a secured site with security certificates which you can see if your using mozilla firefox. if this number calls you again have fun and play around with their heads happy web surfing.
