I gave in and picked up this time. It was some sketchy pre-recorded message about lowering mortgage rates - supposedly sponsored by President Obama. Yeah, right!

I received a call from a foreign man (sounded middle eastern), and he told me that my computer was not downloading Windows updates properly, and he insisted that I get on my computer and so he can help me with this issue. I could tell it was a scam... I asked him to explain what the issue was and he repeatedly told me to get on my computer so he could show me. Once again I refused to do so. I asked him for his companies address and supervisor. He told me he would forward that information, but I once again told him to simply tell me. After 15 minutes of a run around he finally said he worked in New Jersey (which does not have a 202 area code). 5 minutes later he was more specific:
259 Ridge Rd, New Jersey, NJ 08854- obvious a FAKE and made up location ( There is no New Jersey, NJ)
Supervisor: Mike Wilson (foreign as well)

I asked him how he got my number and he said I was on his Database from Windows which is impossible because I do not own a Microsoft operating system. I asked him to remove me from his list and he hung up.

Long pointless call, but I got a lot of information to report about their scam!

At 6:38 pm this evening, I received exactly the same type of call as Mickie listed right above this message. I knew from the moment the caller began speaking that this was a scam. The male caller's accent was so strong I could hardly understand him. He kept insisting that I get on my computer so he could assist me in enabling Windows to update properly. I also asked for his supervisor's name and number which he stated was not possible. I hung up and will not answer any calls from this number again. I really hope people do not fall for this scam.

Caller Company: He would not give his name.

received a call 11/24/14. I did not answer but it has repeatedly called for more than a week. It is obviously a scam. I hapaned to take an identity theft class today about phone calls such as this. When you answer they are able to get into your phone operating system and hack into your e-mail etc to get personal information about you. At this point I am going to go back to a landline and only use my cell for friends. I have had to many scam phone calls this year.

A fake computer tech support scammer. The real purpose of the call is to trick you into paying for free software or buying tech support memberships that are fake. FTC has attacked these people more than once and forced refunds. They mislead people.

Kept telling me my PC was not updating correctly. I kept telling him I didn't have a PC and he refused to believe me. Was actually pretty entertaining for a while. Finally he said "I can tell from how you are talking to me you are not serious about protecting your PC." Huge scam.

This number called me with a foreign middle eastern man telling me something about my Windows. He said he name was Ryan. I automatically raised my voice with a few choice words telling him NO NO Not talking to you! He replied back Yes Yes Yes! Reason I was so rude this time a few months back the same guy called about the same thing and it got ugly. It got ugly because he started calling me names no man should call a woman.
My husband called him back this time he got an answering service wanting you to put in an extension or leave a message. So he left a message for the guy to call him!

So If you get a call from this number DO NOT ANSWER OR GIVE OUT INFO.

I just got a call about my Windows update. When I told her not to call me again, she hung up on me. The connection was horrible. I am reporting her to our Attorney General. Not that it will stop it but maybe they will send out information about the calls. The number I just noticed came up DC, USA.

Just got the second call this week - missed the first one but got the message. Clearly a scam. Told the last one - female, could barely hear her, background noises and strong Indian/Pakistani accent "I can't hear you; you're in India, I'm on the no-call list, good-bye!" and hung up.

Have also had good luck dealing with these nuisances by launching into a long, wordy spiel about whatever charitable cause I pick out of the air. Might be real; might be fictional, but I can get very "pushy" with it and my urging the caller to donate, volunteer, whatever. Once the shoe's on the other foot, the original callers hang up in a hurry.

A friend hears them out, then announces that the little green men are coming out of the crack in the wall. This also leads to a quick conclusion on the caller's part.

when Microsoft windows support calls, I pretend to play along - "accidentally" unplug computer, have to wait for it to reboot - is it so slow because of this virus? Then, say, I thought you said to SHUT IT Off, not turn it on. Wait for reboot again. Then, say you have to answer the door - all from the comfort of your sofa - you don't even have to get up, or miss any of your tv show - they wanna waste your time? Waste some of theirs...

he was calling on the microsoft script with me a couple times and one time I really called him out on the scam/pitiful life... and think he got pissed. Now I'm getting calls from a burner from the same guy (I can tell b/c of one key piece of info he dropped) Does anyone know the name or real address of the company?

Caller said that windows was not updating properly on my computer. I informed them that my computer updated just fine yesterday. Their response to this was that if I looked at my background processes I would see that this wasn't the case. They kept trying to get me to log onto my computer which I did not do.
The caller was a heavily accented woman who did not identify herself or who she worked for. It sounded like the caller was in the car or something with a lot of background noise.

Same as everyone above... computer support person who said my computer is not responding to automatic updates. Very strong Indian accent, I could barely understand him and he had a hard time understanding me. He wanted to know if I was in front of my computer, I said no I was at work. He asked if he could call back later, I said it would have to be after 8:30. He said he gets off at 6:00. I was getting really annoyed and suspicious because I couldn't understand half of what he was saying, so I just said I'd call them back later and hung up.

I too just received a call from this number and this Indian sounding woman said it was in regards to my computer, an then asked me to turn it on, I said who are you trying to reach? And she said a name and I didn't understand the name and asked again and the name changed.. Really sketchy so I told her she had the wrong number... What a joke with all of these companies just trying their best to scam you, and shame on the phone companies selling out our numbers ALL OF THE TIME!!!

I also received several calls from this number and I used to just hang-up or not answer. Then I thought I had better waste some of their time. After being connected, I asked them their company name HAMP for home refinancing. Don't own a home, but now I know who you are, I can file charges against you. Hang up, hmmm, that was rude. lol

They claimed they were from GE Capital, and that I had been approved for a loan (that I never applied for). I told them I was not interested and hung up. They called right back from 323-902-5232 and asked if the line had gotten disconnected.

Caller said his name was Alex from US Financial. He told me that I was approved for a $8,000 grant from the state of Nevada. He said that I applied online for free financial assistance. I told him that I did not fill out a form and he continued to inform me that he had my first and last name, e-mail address and home address. I asked him what e-mail address he had and it was one that is a dummy account that I do not use. He then told me that in order to get the grant I would have to pay a $3.50 processing fee and it could be on any type of credit card or pre-paid card. I told him that I do not use credit cards and he asked if any of my friends or family would let me use theirs and I told him that for security reasons they don't.
