have recvd calls from 516-800-0000 (hicksville, ny) pretty much daily (and nightly) from this number. I do not answer and they hang up when they get my answering machine.
In the past week, I have received 14 calls from this number (516-800-0000). They tried to tell me they were from Microsoft which I ignored. I explained I was on the DO NOT CALL List, but they have called at least six times since then. The caller has a heavy accent and does not realize he is calling the same number. They do not leave messages on my answering machine
The first time they called A man told me I reported a problem with microsoft. When I told him I don't have any microsoft products, he hung up on me. The next time A man called with a heavy accent,asking if i was the primary user of my computer . When I told him I was, he said, it was reported that my microsoft hard drive was running slow? ( or something of that nature, I honestly couldn't understand him ). He wanted me to access my computer and read him some information off it…When I wouldn't give him any information he then asked me for my wife ( using her correct name ) When I told him not to call again he told me he could call any time because he had my number.
Call the Federal Trade Commission at 800-769-4099 or go their website at www.ftc.gov . They are investigating these people. If more people report their illegal actions, the quicker they are prevented from calling the US.
