Every day I receive at least one call to my cell phone from this number. They never leave a message if they reach voicemail, and if I pickup, it's always one scam or the other. Tired of these lowlifes stealing/spoofing local numbers. Do they honestly think that people are going to fall for their gimmicks and lies? There's no such thing as a free trip or vacation, my business's Google listing is fine, I don't need a business loan, I didn't win a big prize, and Microsoft does not call about PC security. Go get a real, LEGITIMATE job and stop trying to scam people. Fraud is a crime.

If they didn't, they wouldn't be calling. The sad truth is---thousands of people have been scammed out of millions of dollars and their lives ruined because they *believed* honestly something terrible was going to happen to them if they did not comply with these criminals' demands. That is the hallmark of extortion--and if there is any hope in getting them shut down, it is going to involve educating as many people as possible and advocating for those who are unable to defend themselves.
Called my cell phone yet again (as they do every day, 1-2 times per day). Yet another spoofed local number that turned out to be a scam from overseas. This time, "Windows" (mind you, not Microsoft) called me about a threat to my PC. Yeah, good luck with that buddy -- I work in IT. Nice try.
