877-283-8360

This number call me today in the morning. He said my name then he claims there is 5 people try to get access on my internet connection. He offers me to download certain software on my computer to protect my network. When I ask more information about him. He hang up, I knew then he is a hacker. I want everybody to be aware. If that number call you do not give your personal information, just be careful

He called me and amidst lots of back ground noise he used my first name when he said "HI ____ " then he hung up.I tried calling the same number back but ,in his voice ,it says 'your number cannot be completed as dialed .please hang up and try again

They are vwry active..same phone call today

Called today.  Used my first name and advised "we're your computer support company".  I told them they were not my computer support company and they hung up.  Assume it is a scam of some sort.

I just received one of these calls also stating the same thing.

Caller said people are using my email and wants access to show me then can fix it.

Caller said people are using my email and wants access to show me then can fix it.

No, they want access so they can place malware/spyware/viruses on your computer and then make you pay a ransom to "repair" it.  Just another variation of the computer virus scam call.

This number called me stating they were my support company, etc. This is the second or third time I've received this type of call. They actually called back twice more.

A person with a thick West-Asian accent called me. Knew my Name, Email address, how many computers, laptops and game consoles and my cell number. I said some bad things to him and he kept calling me back trying to insult me.
I really wish I knew how they knew my info in that detail.

I  got the same exact phone call that everybody else is replying about they claim to be a software support company they claimed that I spoke with him the night before which I never did and that they claim that they were still people attached to my Internet connection I just hung up on him telling him that it was a scam and go to hell. It was some worthless criminal Indian sounding dude

I got the same phone call, 7 laptops and iphones were using my wireless.  I told the guy that I would contact Microsoft and ask them about it directly.  He said he was calling from Microsoft, but I don't trust (and glad I don't) phone calls like this. Be viligant and if in question, call your provider before doing anything.

I was scammed by an 800 number last year--saying he's from Microsoft....  So I no longer answer any 800 numbers from any businesses that I'm not expecting any calls from. No voicemails. When you call back, the number doesn't exist. SIGNS that it's a SCAM! Blocking asap!

I got the same as other folks...iphones and laptops on my network.  FYI...Microsoft will NEVER call you about an issue.  That's why they have a ton of support lines...so you can call them

Company stating they were my internet provider and that there was an issue with my connection. Well, since my internet provider is Comcast and they'd never in a million years call me to proactively fix a problem, I knew it was a scam.

If they know that much, you might want to call your internet service provider and have them look into it. Could be THEY were hacked. (Or have someone selling info they shouldn't, which is probably more likely.)

Same old, same old, with the email variant. Told them flat out it was a scam and not to call me again. Doubt they'll listen though. (Ah, the sheer number of numbers I have blocked for this very reason!)

That's hilarious! (And, alas, too often true!)

No message

Received call from this number 877-283-8360,  I do not recognize the number, so I do not answer, hit Ignore then add to my Block Call App.  I do not care who it is, nor do I return call to find out.  I am sure it is not Hillary R. or Donald J.
