I got a call from a man with a very heavy Indian accent who told me I had a malicious infection in my computer.
I could barely understand what he was saying. He claimed to be from the head office of Microsoft. When I asked where he was calling from he said India. For $65.00 he could fix this problem forever. I told him I had no time to talk so he said he would call back.
They crossed the ocean! As I live in Holland, I saw the USA-number so I immediately thought: hm, strange. Fortunately I was on my bike (!) and with the snow and gloves on, I wasn't fast enough to answer :-)
I received call from this number. When asked who is on the other line, a man answers asking me instead, this guy called from different numbers 630-893-9893, 310-510-9153, 607-734-9187, +3444. The caller was a male voice speaking Hindi very fluently and was asking what is my name.
My mom received a call from this number tonight. The man had a very heavy indian accent. He claimed to be from Western Union and said his name was James Rogers. He said that Nortons' had moved out of the country and they were refunding her money to her for her Norton's account. Unfortunately, she was on the phone for over an hour and ended up letting him on her computer. He also, was trying to get all kinds of personal information. Finally someone came in and made her hang up and turn off her computer and said they wouldn't do anything. He got mad and said he was going to crash her computer. I am guessing he probably tried. We don't know yet.He also, attempted to charge money to her credit card. Please be careful of these people. They are ruthless and prey on the elderly and those that do not understand.
