505-349-4654

simon, from windows wants to help me with my computer. asked if I was in front of it. I said yes. he asked if it was on. I said no I always watch a blank screen. he then asked me to turn it on. I said why he said to help me. I told him I doubted his name was simon ( his accent was not one I would trust)

Just got a call from 1-505-349-4654  said hello, four times, no answer.  

got call said she was calling from windows technical support. i told her she had wrong number and she hung up

This number called and when I picked up.....nothing.  then after 10 seconds, just said "good bye" and hung up.

Got a call from windows technical support. This is the 4th or 5th time someone from "windows technical support" has called. First time from this number though. Usually it's a man, but this was a woman. I told her I didn't have windows. She asked if I had a mac and I said yes. Maybe they'll stop calling now.

A man called and said he was with windows technical support and was calling me to tell me that when I use my computer online that I am alerting them to malicious errors from software I am downloading...sounds absolutely ridiculous!  I told him that I am an ethical hacker and I would be aware of something like this.  He mentioned that he was from London.  The # that shows on my caller id is 505-349-4654.  I told him to remove my number and to refrain from calling me in the future.  I also told him that it was odd he would be calling random people, and then he went silent.  I finally hung up on him...BEWARE!!

telephone caller id said it was albuquirque nm, very foreign accented man on other line stated to me that he was from windows technical support and that my computer was sending error messages, I told them they were frauds in the first place and i was on do not call list what do you not understand. well he continued for a little bit saying he needed my computer id and other info to help me. i told him goodbye and do not call again.

I just got that same call, Asian sounding guy from 'Microsoft Technical Support' telling me my Windows computer sending them errors indicating I had virus on computer.  I told him which computer, I had several.  I hear him tell someone else 'he has multiple computers' and then he hung up.  What a scam.  A bad one at that.  Hope folks don't fall for it.

Left message on my cell but was just breathing and then hung up

got a call from a man saying I was unknowingly downloading a virus and I was to turn on some security button ,his accent sounded from India or Pakistan. He said he was from Windows IT team. I let him ramble on and hung up

same thing - called multiple times in the last two days. Please everyone should report to the FTC  https://www.donotcall.gov

its a Huge Scam to try to get you to give them access to your PC so they can steal personal info.

Got same call. Asked him to tell me what my email address is. Could not do it. Told him I was not doing anything on my computer for him. The nerve!!!!

This number has called me twice now!  I haven't answered as I don't recognize it.  They can leave a message on my answering machine if its urgent!!!!  If I am home and hear the message I will pick up if its legitimate.

My caller ID shows this number called me this morning. Most posts already show it is someone purporting to be representing Windows, It has to be a scam as I do not have windows.

Just got a call no answer .... Must be a scam caller watch out!!!! I reported to FBI

this same number keeps calling me wanting my windows info. I have ripped on them and asked them to remove my number and that I knew it was a scam and they hung up. Hope they call back again, I need to do a little venting and I might as well vent on them :)

I used to work at Microsoft so let me state this.  These guys are scammers they are not from "Windows Support" as Microsoft will never call you unsolicited and they do NOT have people calling you to inform you of computer issues!  These guys want to take you to a website called www.teamviewer.com (Which I believe is a legitimate site)  The site allows people to control your PC.  DO NOT LET THEM CONTROL YOUR PC.  They likely will install a virus on your system that will steal your credit card/bank acocount/passwords etc.

If you HAVE let them do this.  IMMEDIATELY CONTACT YOUR BANK.  Have your systems scanned by anti-virus software such as AVAST or MCafee etc.  I personally would flatten the box as you have no way of knowing what they put on of if it was cleaned.  The program may not show as a virus but still steals your information.  

So remove your important documents and files to a thumbdrive.  Scan the thumbdrive then flatten your computer.  That would be my recommendation.  (Read don't hold me liable for you losing files, etc its a recommendation based on what I would do).

How do we know they are scammers?

1. There is NO WAY a technician knows your computer is sending out errors, but cannot tell you if its on
2. There is NO WAY that someone on the internet is getting your errors unless YOU installed software to let them DO IT.
3. There is NO WAY that someone can determine your computer and YOUR PHONE NUMBER.
4. There is NO WAY that even if they know your computer and somehow in a wild fantasy knew your phone number and they DO NOT KNOW YOUR NAME?

Its a scam protect yourself and DO NOT FALL FOR THIS.

By the way would "Windows Support" curse you and say F&^% Y*& when you call them out on the facts I just laid out to you?  If they were from Microsoft I guarantee that would be the LAST day they worked there.

No this is a scam.

I got twice calls from the number but nothing when I received. When I called back, I got a message like this "I am sorry I cannot connect you to this number, 3".
Please help to block the calls from this number to my home phone.

Thanks.

My talons are sharp, my eyes even sharper...watch your back interloper. Idiot left a message and said "careful". That is for sure a two way street.
