976-375-9249

No identification from this number. No message was left. This Number looked dubious so thought I'd look into its whereabouts.  Research indicated number is coming from Mongolia.

Received a call from 976-375-9249 about 20 minutes ago. Left the answering machine get it. A woman's voice said Hello? twice, and hung up.No foreign accent, sounded like a typical american.

Received call from 976-375-9249 - no name/unknown.  Caller alleges call from the IT depart for the US.  Foreign accent, truly a scammer.  Please be careful.  Reporting this number to the FCC.

Caller stated that they are from Microsoft IT department and that my computer was downloading some files that put my computer at risk.  "I said so what should I do?"  He wanted me to get in front of my computer and I told him I wasn't in front of my computer in which he stated that I told him I was. Probably because I kept him on the line several minutes having him explain what the situation was again and again.  When I told him I wasn't in front of my computer, he hung up!

Got a call from this number, 976 area code is usually from nefarious callers and it's blocked.

This number is from Mongolia, China. Hang up! It's a scammer!

Male with thick foreign accent claimed to be with my computer "Internet" support department and asked that I be in front of my computer so he could help me with an issue. I said it's highly unlikely that he was with any support department of mine and that it sounded like a scam, he got angry and said he was and that I needed to be in front of my computer now! So I asked ok, then what ISP do I have? he said excuse me, I said again what is my ISP? he said he saw no reference to an ISP, I said well if you are truly with my service department then you would know my ISP, to which he got belligerent and told me to shut up and get in front of my computer, to which I told him where to stick it and hung up.

Total social engineering scam call !!!

Just got a call and the message from Dan was, HELLO, HELLO,HELLO.. It was hard to understand his accent but something about my computer being hacked and he was from IT in America.  Sure you are....Another scammer.

This is the message left on my answering machine from this number , I don't believe it will be a call I will be returning

"juli?n(?) que me llames. U tarde me b. A. Enviado que me llame. Helado. Helado."

They have called  three nights in a row. Asking me to get in front of my computer. How do you block them.  Im on the do not call list. Maybe I should do it again?

Caller said he was from IT department and there were issues with my computer. I told him we don't have a computer and he got irate and hung up. I tried to call back and it is a false number. This is a scam!!!

There are multiple threads on this site that mention these tech support telemaggoters becoming irate and using vulgar language if they do not get the response they want. It is best to ignore unfamiliar callers. You might also want to consider the option of a call blocking device or app.

Got a call on the machine, just said hello. Tried callback, phone company couldn't put it through. Thank heavens they coundnt check caller ID. Just got done with another scammer calling 5-6 times a day. Getting tired of this BS. Phone company set up star 57. It works.

Glad to have read in the comments here that the area code "976" is a sure sign of a "nefarious caller".

Don't call them back or your phone number will be charged.   see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premium-rate_telephone_number

That is for the 976 prefix, which would be the first three numbers after the area code. Example: 123-976-9249

Got  a call from this number for the 2nd time now, and both times the voicemail has been a female saying 'Hello?....HELLO?' ....Do they not understand that they are leaving voicemails? Geesh. Def do not answer this one.

Said he was from IT and that my computer was sending messages, etc.  I listened for awhile then told him I knew it was a scam and to not call back.  As I was hanging up I heard something to the effect of "it's not a scam......"  But he was polite ;-)

The dnc list is a joke. Buy a call blocker from amazon and stop these scum telemarketing jerks.

Hey Sam, since when do criminals ever obey laws?  Most of these calls are coming from India and Pakistan.We have no jurisdiction there in those country's.  Do you think foreign country's are going to obey our calling laws?
