I live in the Sandhills of NC near Pinehurst and looking at my caller ID from yesterday, I got a call from the same number. We weren't home and they did not leave a message.
The Caller ID name is suspicious and I believe is related to an incident that happened a couple weeks ago where I clicked on a Facebook ad that froze my computer and I believe was one of those ransomware things you hear about because I was able to get out of the attack but shortly after got a call from someone claiming they were from Microsoft Support regarding the hijacking of my computer and I hung up on them, then blocked that number.
I looked at my router and saw that I was getting DDoS attacked, so through my son, I was able to get a router that is able to filter that and turned our new fancy TimeWarner/Spectrum modem/router/phone into just a modem and ended that. I was also able to scan my computer and remove all traces of this crap.
If any of this sounds familiar, you should get a good tech person to assist you in protecting you.
