8557524075

These people just called my dad, called himself "Spencer" same deal, told him he was from Microsoft and a company called OMDI. Needed to fix error messages on the computer. Good ole dad, he told him all computer things are handled by me and called me as soon as he hung up. I Googled the number and found this website. If you have elderly parents like me, You better alert your folks about this! Cal cam from the same number 855-752-4075. Now I need to figure out how to deal with them.

The best way to get your money back is to call up the bank and ask for chargeback. Try to do it immediately as the sooner you do the sooner you get the money back. Even FTC caught these scammers.

Got call from number 855-752-4075 about the sme old scan.

Well I received the same call yesterday from 855-752-4075 x67194 from Edwin Parker.. Saying he was from Microsoft and my computer was sending them error messages.. Funny thing is, I really have been having problems with my computer and I had been hitting the send error message button to Microsoft and so I thought that it was for real... Dumbly I did let him into my computer, and their were over 49,000 error messages... Edwin talked for over 30mins explaining all kinds of stuff.. I cut him off several times and asked what was it that was needed.. Finally he got to the screen that displayed the MDI support and the above phone number and $150.00. He told me to write the phone number down. I asked for his extension, which he reluctantly gave to me, and said anyone could help me.. I advised him I needed to talk this over with my husband.. We just had a new harddrive installed in July.. He kept telling me that the Microsoft operating system needed to have an antivirus for it and that the McAfee I had would not keep  it safe.. Kept showing me that I wasn't protected because there weren't any kb numbers behind my AOL program, nor my McAfee program.. that is when I really knew something was wrong..
Edwin spoke with a slight English accent.

Received a call from this company saying they were Microsoft and that they had received an error message from my computer, I asked him they how they got my phone nu,ber and he told ,me it was linked to my ISP provider, so i asked who ny provider was and he could not answer, he humg up. Watch this number. I did call the number back, they answered MDI Support. I think hard to understand.

I fell for the same scam. A guy with an Indian accent called and said I had error messages. At the time my computer was already running a little slow, so I Fell for it.

If you fell for this REFORMAT your hard drive!!! everything you do online they can now see. Re install a fresh copy of windows. DO NOT use that computer until you get it fixed. If you check any bank accounts or credit card(s) they will get all your information.

How fool you are ............. seems somebody computer illitrate is directing you moreover you sounds like computer robot, you do not have you own mind

I just received a call from George David who has a heavy accentI
 He said he was from Microsoft and claimed my computer was sending a lot of error messages Kept saying click this and  that, When things were not successful, he wanted to gain control by going to www.teamserver.com. at this point, . I said I needed to get my girls from school would call him back.  He gave me the number 1-855-752-4075 . Pressured me for a specific time I would call back I smelled a rat and I guess I was correct. Thank you all very much for this forum..
Caller ID read: unknown caller.

I got the same call as everyone else here did but the guy used the name William Spencer I didn't fall for any of his lines and googled the phone number right away and read all these comments about them i urge everyone to spread the word about these people to all your friends, we all must have some link to the same place where they are getting their information on us I just started back with Direct T.V. again not sure if this could be their link but thats the only thing I have done different lately but I guess it could be facebook or any other thing that we all have in common too....

My experience was the same as the above. I was apprehensive at first but he first started out directing ME how to look up the error messages. Next thing you know he has me type in an address and soon HE was on my computer. As soon as he started talking money to help me A BIG RED FLAG WENT UP and I stopped him from doing anything. Before he logged off he had installed GOOGLE CHROME which I did not want as I have an older computer and it doesn't work well on it.

I printed the error messages and his notepad message and promptly deleted the access info he left on my tool bar. Also ran my Norton virus scan which found nothing. He said he was going to send me an email but never asked for the address which I wouldn't have given him and I never received one. I am still going to check with my computer support team to see if there is anything further I need to do. My contact person went by ROMERO HUNTER (good India name). lol

Exactly the same thing happened to me.  I also hope there is nothing new on my computer.  He saw the picture on the screen saver and began asking questions if this was my wife and grandchildren.  That is when I became concerned and got his name, Romeo Hunter, and ended the call.

Friend of mine came into the office asking about "Red and Yellow Errors"
I asked a few questions and found out this same guy had called him.

Thank you everyone for posts.  Good to know it was a scam.

Then again the heavy accent - didn't match the name of Eric Wilson

I got the call which shows local number. Coz this is a store number and he is asking for the owner, I told him the owner will call back and he gives me the 8557523652. He said he work with some debit processing company and will help to reduced the cost of debit processing. I got similar calls everyday, so I just like to post this as well
