212-512-2524

I received a call from this number and the guy acted like he was from technical support and wanted me to turn on my computer. I asked him who he was with and his phone number and he told me 866 then hung up. I used *69 on my phone to get his number.

I received a call from # 212-512-2523 from NY at 5:20PM.The person with horrible accent wanted me to turn on the computer stating I was having some kind of Problem.I hung up on him.And when I tried to dial back  that number, I had avoice message saying to report FCC as those calls were from hackers trying to get access to our computers.Please beware.

I just received a call from the same number telling me that my computer is sending out viruses to everyone in my email mailbox and that they wanted information so that they could repair it.  Sounds like a scam to me.

Just received a call from this number. I guess they thought they had reached my husband's office because they instructed me to turn on the doctor's computer quickly to fix a deadly virus. Actually, they called our home number. I played dumb and told them I didn't have a computer. They hung up on me. What a scam!

I just got a call from 212-512-2524.  
The accents sounded like they were Indian or Pakistani, definitely not American.  There was a bad connection, lots of static, etc.

They said my computer was infected with viruses and sending out messages.  The lady who called said she would put me on with one of their Senior Technicians.

He asked if I was in front of my computer.  When I asked what operating system he showed I was running, he said it was Windows XP.  

I'm pretty confused, because all of my computers are using Fedora 16, and told him so.  Amazingly, he apparently couldn't solve my problem because he hung up right away.

Looks like if my computer is going to be sending out messages, I'm going to have to help it out by typing them myself, like this one, and hitting send or something.

Great, another day shot to help solve the world's computer problems.  Type the message, hit send, type the message, hit send, continue until fingers are cramped.

This is a spam call. I want to know how I can stop them from calling. The person with a foreign accent is enquiring about the computer !!!!!!!

this is a scam do not tell these theives any info about your pc, they dont even know if you have one, they just try there luck and hope your stupid enough to give them details about your pc tell them they have got through to a computer repair shop and they will hang up on you, ive had over 20 calls from these scammers, dont know if i will be so polite to them next time they call, they cant even talk descent english, microsoft would never phone you regarding this type of problem so its all a big scam , beware

Got call from this apparently known scammer from overseas, using number that appears to belong to McGraw Hill Company.

I just got a phone call from the same number.  First whats pretty funny I have a Mac.  The guy keeps telling me I'm being hacked.  I then tell him I'm in a criminal justice class and I'm doing a research paper on cyber crimes.  (which I really am)  He never hung up so quickly.

I received a call from these scammers (212-512-2524, phone number most likely has been spoofed). They had a heavy Indian or Pakistan accent.  They tried to 'warn' me my computer was infected with a virus that not even anti-virus software or firewalls could stop and tried to sell me their service.  

It was most suspicious when they had trouble providing me with the name of their company and the name of their software. They claimed they were from 'Bestel internet security?' or something like that, it was hard to make out the company name due to their heavy accent.

It became even more suspicious when they refused to provide me with a website to research the product they were offering and even refused to tell me the name of their software. I mean what kind of salesman doesn't even know that name of the product he is trying to sell you...

All they kept emphasizing was I 'need' to purchase their service and install their software immediately, and from that point I knew this was a scam.

Do not give these guys any personal information, especially financial information, and do not allow them install their software onto your computer.

Just recieved a call with the caller ID saying
NEW YORK
1-212-512-2524

I answered and said hello.  There was a long pause and then when it connected I heard a woman yell
"HEY STOP IT!" and thenthe phone was hung up on their end.

WEIRD?

I have gotten these people who sound like they are calling from India twice in two days once with the numbe on my caller I.D. today it said "Private"  telling me they were with Windows Security and that my PC has been down loading things illegally,I let my granddaughter speak to them as she is more into the PC than I at 69 and she told them if there was a problem then WHY were they calling us and why did they not just FIX it .
I then called my Internet server company who told me Windows would NEVER call ME and that they were probably scammers  and to just hang up on them

Seems like the exact same people Sanity ,makes me concerned though as my Debit card  number was stolen some how ,and some nice person went Internet shopping ,thank GOD Chase was watching
but having things happen to you like this makes one VERY WARY

I got a call from this number about 2 months ago. It showed as: " McGraw-Hill dot com" on CID at that time. I actually notifed the REAL company.
 Just got another call from this supposed number; they have removed "McGraw Hill" from Cid now.  I stayed on line and no one spoke up. I hung up.

 BEWARE!

I just got the same call...It is a scam.  Either hang up on don't asnwer they are trying to get something from your computer.
