A new interesting twist on Robo Calling Spammers: (AreaCode) 555-0xxx. Every number has the 555 and 0xxx in common and all are fake if try to return the call,
Here is the list started this week on my block list:
760-555-0160
907-555-0173
414-555-0128
623-555-0147
I have just received a call from 623-555-0147, identified themselves as Microsoft Corp. They advised me not to use Internet because there is a bug in my PC. They will call again tomorrow to help me fix the bug.
Do you have any idea on what I should do?
Thanks in advance.
Ignore them, don't believe anyone who says they are calling from Microsoft to "fix" your computer. This is a scamer, they will try to get information off of your PC, then talk you into installing malware. If they've gotten anyone to do anything with your PC, disconnect it from the internet immediately, then take it to a professional to have them diagnose and probably wipe the machine. Also, never give out any information, if you have then start tracking down information on identity theft prevention (checking credit rating, canceling credit cards, ect.) These people are scum, you need to defend yourself.
