SCAMMER. Received 7 calls from this number in the last few days. Comes up on caller ID as Dave Hazel. No messages. Finally got fed up and answered. A person said they were calling from Microsoft and noticed I had a probelm with my computer and that he could fix it. First off, I am not having any problems with my computer and secondly, I never contacted Microsoft or anyone to report any problems. I told the person to stop calling and hung up on him. He called back later that day. I told him once again to stop calling and he hung up on me.
Got 8 calls from this number. Comes up as Dave Hazel. No message for any of the 8 calls. I'm thinking if Dave wants to get a hold of me that bad, he could leave a message.

Received several calls from number.
First: The fact that a bogus name and number listed/allowed, the question is HOW and what SOURCE does (what appears to be India) sets up this communication???
Second: WHY is there not a way to track this invasion.
Third: What happens when they gain access to one's computer and what are the consequences for,
a) Called party Invasion of privacy, and the fact the caller (IDENIFIED AS MIRO SOFT) knows information concerning names and what else?
b) Caller as far as discipline or stopping this scam
c) Does Mirco Soft know or care?
Some source is hiring these reps for money and must profit somehow from it. Unless this is a way of hacking and finding our personal information
ANY ANSWERS????
Call Type claimed from Miro Soft to fix........................
Received a call from a man claiming to be from Microsoft support. I told him I wasn't interested and hung up. Caller ID Dave Hazel. I believe this is a scam that is getting pretty old now.
They can get access to your computer remotely, and threaten to erase your hard drive until you pay them in bitcoin using the dark web. Huge scam going on – the going rate is about $500. They featured it on TV - 60 Minutes - a couple of months ago.
