What they are doing is tantamount to extortion unless you "cooperate". Let them know you are aware they are running a scam and have alerted the authorities. If that does not work, have your phone number changed to an unpublished one.
John tried to sell me Rescom Energy as an alternative electricity provider. He claimed to know nothing about the Do Not Call Registry. He told me to contact his boss at 855 565 7283. I did, and Rescom promised there would be no more unsolicited telephone calls. Some how, I have doubts this is the end to these interruptions.
I got a call from them. It is an auto call and no one answer until they confirm a human is answering. I my case they where claiming to be Windows Support but I had heard of this scam before and also I am an ex IT specialist so I know that Microsoft does not call customers directly.
This morning I received a phone call ... guy said he was calling from Windows and that hackers were affecting my computer or something ... and with an authoritative voice said, "GO to your computer"!
I said he was lying; there was nothing wrong with my computer and hung up.
Why I was so assertive and brief? I've have received several phone calls telling me that I had a problem with my computer!! NOW I am aware of these scams. They prey on vulnerable people.
Please do not allow the above phone number to call me. The person says my computer needs to be checked. Nothing is wrong with my computer. I keep get such unwanted cals. How do I go about stopping
such calls. Very irritating.
