Just got a call from Alec at this number re microsoft

Just got a call from this number to tell me he was calling from windows and that he was going to help me.  When i started to question him, he became rude, that is when i hung up

Same call, but I was able to get to a supervisor since my "issue was so bad" When questioned he gave me a number to call in Ottawa, 613-699-8008 to prove he was from Windows and is a windows partner.

Strung along this number for a while, takes you to a c drive that shows when has some trouble connecting to the internet (standard occurance in some home accesses) to try to prove that you system is going to collapse, tells you to go to www.supportwindows.tk. The page is for an outfit called ComputerSupport that wants to take your money. The person on the phone tried to get me to save their software -- that would give them remote access to my computer. That's where I stopped playing along. Shame on them. Their grandmothers should have inflicted on them what they try to inflict on others.

Oh, forgot to mention they tried to convince me they were actually Microsoft tech support. Microsoft should sue their assets.

They called and said that our computer is showing an error. The caller had an accent for India and said that he could help fix the problem.

Usually don't answer the calls but did this time for some amusement.  He said he was calling from microsoft and telling me that my computer was sending out personal information over the internet.  Asked if this was happening right now, he said yes, funny though, my computer was turned off, hung up.

Got call from this number, didn't  answer, they left no message....

Thanks for your help

BEWARE SCAM or HACK JOB into your computer potential!!!!!
Answered this call at my dad's house. Came in as "CNS Mrk RC" on the caller ID.
Gald I did they migh thave got him.  Claims to be from Microsoft tech and having comptuer issues that will crash the computer in a few days (oh NO!  ha ha ha).  Takes you to start menu, computer then right click to manage, then to system tools and event manager then walks thorugh a buch of these telling you to look for errors, etc and how bad and slowing the comptuer they will be.  Then they want you to let them send you to the "Microsoft tech" to goto a specific webpage (no I did not go there!) and let them log on your comptuer.  When I said no they said it will crash in a few day (my dad's comptuer is so new its still under warrenty so not really worried about some hoax like that).
During the whole phone call I did take it off line after telling her I did a search for scams and she said they weren't one.  Oh Indian (as in Asia) sounding voice and sounded like noise in the background almost like calling from home.

I am in SC and just got a call from this number....Glad I did not answer..message was not left.

Scam call, woman with indian accent, not good english, wanted to get into my computer

I am in North Carolina and just got a call.  I did not answer because I am at work on my work computer.  There must be a special place in Hell for these people.

I have received several calls from this # also from unknown # and unknown name.  When I stayed on the line they answered but when I questioned who they were and could I speak to a supervisor they hung up.

Just got a call from these people. Speaking in an almost incomprehensible Indian accent, a man told me that my computer was sending out error messages to "Windows", and claimed he worked for "Windows" When I assured him that my computers were fine, he yelled at me that I should quit wasting his time (!), and should just turn my computer on.  Funny thing, it's on 24/7....   At that point I hung up.

They tried to scam for money to buy their system get my credit card number and remote access.  As I was shutting down my computer. They hung up.. jerks...

I hope you didn't believe them.

 the sad thing i should know better, but because my pc was doing  things  that i was going to have check   he sound good so i let him on my pc.  you know if u do Banking etc on the pc he can take all of that.

A caller who sounded east Indian claimed to be calling from Microsoft Technical Services to announce error messages coming from my computer. He said he had access to all the information about my computer but wouldn't name the brand. Not a very clever scammer.
