203-570-1989

he called and said i was uploaded bad files and viruses to their system, then  he asked me to do somethings on my computer, instead i checked my antivirus and antispam software, showed that all was good on my end, then i began to ask him for a phone number to reach his company(internet service management) then he proceeded to insult me and told me i was mentally ill.

That's some pretty outlandish claims - and coming from a stranger on a phone call!

If that's how Brian's contact with this caller went, then I guess most everyone who receives the call should either ignore it or block it.  But the rest of y'all who like to answer the phone and f_uck with people like this idiot, please go right ahead and try to get to 'em.  Then come back here and let us know how it went.

Nawh, if I made a contact like that, I'd just tell them to send their information to me, and I'd look into it, then just hang up on them - without confirming ANY information to them.

This number called us a while back.  We didn't answer.  They didn't leave a message.  No problem.

Whatever the caller's motive is, it's a bogus call.

Said that our Windows computer in the household's linking to the internet and uploading our files and viruses.
I replied stating that we had no Windows computers in the household and naturally he started to say that the information given to this ISM (internet service management) agent was about windows.
He sounded indian (no offense to any out there) and obviously loses credibility as he was unable to properly communicate.
As always, no number was left, no professional way to end conversation either.

Got a call from this number and tried telling me my computer was sending out my information and viruses. I was like okay, and what would you like me to do. "Well sir I'm from ISM (internet service management) and we need to stop your computer from sending this stuff out. " I played along thinking about the AMMY scam. Caller tries to direct me to a website www.help247.tk Didn't go there but he tried to convince me too. Beware of this company they are fishy sounding.

Yep. I just got the call..I just kept saying to him...dude, you are a stranger, I will call my service provider and have them look into it. Then he said my service provider can't help me.....so then i said..are you a superhero?...and he said excuse me? .... I said...are you wearing tights?...he tried to ignore that and continued to try and direct me to the www.help247.tk site so I hung up on him.
Then I googled the nmber and found this forum.....started reading these posts ...AND HE CALLS BACK!!!
I told him that I was reading a whole thread on-line about him and his special powers to save my computer that only he can help with......and he hung up.
All the evidence i need.

The same number called me today in canada my aunt answered, and my aunt sayd he was calling for illegal stuff or something and that ticked me off, and i hung up and on him and he called again and i didnt answer it

Just got a call from an indian lady at this number (they have tried to ring me several times this week).  She said that my computer was 'leaking' information & that I needed to check something through the Start menu - I played along while I checked my antivirus reports on my computer & all was OK so I told her that the system she was looking at must be faulty.  She asked me if I lived in an apartment block & if perhaps someone had been 'hacking' into my wifi - I live on an acreage in the middle of Nova Scotia!

Clearly a bogus call - didn't know what they wanted as I didn't get that far but it was fun stringing her along a bit!

Just got the same call and i had herd of calls similar to this one before so i said to myself "Lest have some fun..."  So i played along.. and same thing trying to get me to long onto the website etc...  So i said what company hired you to look into this, he said they were hired by something like The internet management service of Canada...  so i looked it up while he was still blabbering about leaking stuff on my computer etc.. and of course nothing came up..  so then i waited a few minutes still pretending i was clueless about computers until i asked again what United States department they were working for (knowing they said they worked for the Canadian government the first time), then they said they were hired by Microsoft..  so i laughed to myself and asked but you said you worked for some US department.  They ignored it and kept saying they wanted me to "rest easy at night knowing my computer was safe" etc.. and try to direct me to the site again.  SO then i said i don't live in the US, i'm in Switzerland and i dont know why the US would care about me.  He ignored that said the service providers in the US hired them. SO then i said how do i know your site wont give me a virus.. they said it wouldn't and they just wanted to help me.  SO then i said your story is full of holes stating the geographic inaccuracies and the many companies they were hired by and still he insisted i go to the website.. so i asked how they got my number and they said they got it from my ISP so then i stated again i was from Switzerland and wondered how a US ISP would have my information. So then i said i think you are a scam, and they said why are you being like this and then i was getting bored since he was blatantly dumb so i just hung up.  Its fun to mess with them.

i had a phone call yesterday saying info was going from me pc they say Windows computer in the household's linking to the internet and uploading our files and viruses.the phone number did show up they phoned from 1203 570 1989 i did phone it back and it said  the number you have dialed is not in service hmmmm ...

he was Indian hard to understand . and ask me do a few things to show me that i was getting warnings and so on i  thought it was all bit odd but was looking to see what they was talking about it sounded like he was in a call centre i couldn't find what he was talking about so then he said to put in www.help274.tk did it not knowing what it was at all then windows popped up next min i know he was on my pc :( it was omg panic  

i looked it up on the net about scams . this is what happened :( http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2012/10/i- ... s-ars-technica/ 

:( was not happy at all so wish i just put phone down.. so he showed me what he was talking about the warning and was saying to pay for avg as it the best and wanted me to pay there and then gave me few prices $100 up silver gold so on and said they could have my pc clear these warnings with in the hr.... i didnt give out my name or address there was no way i feel i fool .... theygot that fare ....i never open files in emails so on  i said i was not paying anything i wanted to look in to things he said he phone back in day or 2

Keeps on blowing up my phone. Saying something about my computer. What a scam. I pretty much knew it but wanted to do some more investigating. I found this place. I don't know why people try to ruin other people lives. Be safe out there people. The world has gone insane

Just got the same call....Hung up before he could finish his spiel. I use Apple products; no viruses.
