I received a call from this phone number today. The caller ID showed --Illinois 847-822-6827. The man on the phone had a very heavy eastern Indian accent and said that he was from Microsoft and that my computer was sending out signals that I was being hacked. I told him, "Thanks. I'll tell my son. He's my go-to IT guy" , and I hung up. Has anyone else gotten calls of this nature?
12/5/2013 Received same type of call. Told man I was just going out door to Doctor. ( wasn't ) About 4 hrs later same number called, hung up, did not leave message. Thanx for your info. If he calls again, Thank God for caller ID.
I got that call today, I also called Microsoft Tech Support on my other phone and they told me to hang up. The Microdoft guy then told me my computer had been hacked and I needed a level 5 certified tech to fix it.
