767-503-3782

Guy called, with Indian accent, saying computer hacked,seems like phishing scam.

Blocked this caller. A scam artist.

on Nov.03rd 2014 I received a call from 767-503-3782 an Asian lady she sounds Chinese .she said her name is Susan and she is calling from the IRS investigation dept. about tax fraud, she claimed that I committed .she was trying to convince me  to pay $35000 penalty otherwise she will take this to court.

Got a call on 11/5/14 from guy with Indian accent stating he's calling about computer drivers that are not working, claiming his company handles technical support calls for Microsoft. I played along (I'm a tech support guy for a living), until he had me try to connect to my PC remotely. Telling me to visit www.pcu247.com which gives you a variety of options for them to connect to your computer. Do not have them connect to your PC.

I asked if I could record the conversation, and he said yes. Then I started asking him what the name of his company was, and he gave some generic name. When I asked him where he was located, he mentioned a local city, but after I prompted him to tell me where that was, he hung up. Sucker!

Scam artist.

No message because I did not recognize the Caller ID.  "Roseau DM" was the name above the phone number.

Got a call from this number, a guy with an Indian accent. He asked for Jenky or Venky and I said I think you have the wrong number, then he hung up.

Caller ID out of area, no message left.  Added to call blocker!

a guy with indian accent told me that i won a grant of 7000 from the us treasury department because  i paid all my taxes on time. asked if u were working , single.or married and gave me a supposed confirmation  code and that i had to call 2062012185 to receive the money by money gram and i began to ask  for some details and the guy said just call the number and ask for the treasury department  and give youre confirmation code  and hung up as fast as he could.

no one came on the line when I answered.

Indian guy w an accent called. told me my computer has a virus and I said theres nothing wrong w it. He kept cutting me off because i was on to him so i just hung up...

an indian sounding man said he was from windows technical support.   and I questioned him but he would not answer my questions.  he was trying to get me to put stuff into my computer.  I pretended to go along to keep him talking.  I was trying to find out what he was after but I couldn't.   I just hung up on him. the number he called from is 767 503 3782.  watch out.

Glad you were not scammed.

If you had allowed the scammer to access your computer, they probably would have done one or more of the following:
• Disabled the anti-virus software
• Added nasty malware to the computer
• Copied the Contact List (so they can email your soon-to-be ex-friends)
• Copied any financial data or passwords they could find
• Compromised the ID
• "Zombied" the computer, so it would respond to THEIR commands sent via internet
• Deleted some important files
• Asked for money to repair the damage they caused

What can you do immediately after such an attack?
1.  Pull the cables on the computer, so it cannot access the internet.
2.  Change ALL  passwords stored on the computer
3.  Run FULL malware scans on the computer, in "SAFE" mode!
4.  Change the passwords again, particularly if the malware scans showed anything
5.  Inform your bank and credit card companies
6.  Sign up for credit monitoring, and check the status frequently
7.  You may have to bring the computer to a local repair shop, and tell them the story.
8.  Tell friends what happened, so they can be aware of strange emails from you
9.  Plug in the cables only AFTER all the above have been done
10.  Change the passwords on all online accounts.  Even better - access a "safe", uninfected  computer, and chance your online account passwords RIGHT NOW.
