It rang 3 times. I picked up...dah!!! No one home.

It is Allied International Credit collections

A male with a thick Indian accent identified himself a John, technical support for Microsoft Windows representing unidentifiable company called to inform that for the past few days they were receiving error message from my computer therefore they needed access to my computer and credit card information for their service to remove malicious data - call from 416 360 0172.

Received call and did not leave a message and when I called back the phone line just went to a dial tone after connection.

Recieved another call and they did not leave message ! Called back and phone line just went to dial tone after connection.

I received a call from 416-360-0172 and left a rude message to call back at 1-877-451-2610 extension 6145. I called back and it turned out to be AIC, a shi*ty collection agency trying to track down people by randomly calling and threatening people having a similar first or family name. They are very rude and aggressive and when they call try to get your personal information without giving any information who the hell are they. They exactly act as scammers and fraudists. Government should put a leash on these wild animals by passing regulation on their practice.

I received a call from a guy with a thick indian accent 416 360 0172 telling me my Microsoft was sending error messages along with malicious software was slowing down my computer.  I needed to sit down in front of my computer to help fix this.  He was aggressive and intrusive when I said, " I don't have time for this now."  He actually wanted to know where I was going.   I am glad that I type the number and saw the comments from above.

This company is a scam, hang up!

I received a call from the same guy with indian accent, I asked for his supervisor; another guy came with same accent. I put them on hold trying to call them on my cell but I got no where. I told the guy I did not thrust him and cut off the call.

same story, indian accent trying to tell me that the computer was sending errors to them.  I am a programmer and I realized this was a scam right away but I played along to see what he was up to.  He asked me to run eventviewer (windows logging) and specifically the application logs.  He then told me that the information there was (in broken english) indicating that my applications were corrupt. If it had the letter 'i' it was like an infections (it really means information) and if it was marked with a yellow or red (warning and error respectively, which are of no concern) then my computer was infected and my software was corrupt.  He then had me go to www.showmypc.com and tried to get me to use their service (which seems legit) to allow him to access my computer so he could help me.  I told him that I would need to speak to his supervisor.  He refused (this went on several minutes), I wasn't getting anywhere so I decided to start responding to his questions like he was trying to sell me a 'window' cleaning service.   (him) 'Sir, your computer is infected'..  (me) But I am very meticulous and I never use unknown substances (him) sir, this can happen to anyone and you can see by what I have show you the informations that your computer has issues do you agree? (me) well, my windows seems to be working fine, in fact right now I can see my neighbor, she is really hot (him) sir, I am not sure what you are talking about, can I help you with your computer (me) yes, you can help me of course because you are an expert on windows (him) ok, do you see the orange box on showmypc.com webpage (me) yes,so you think a cleaning would definitely help (him) yes sir, it will make your computer run much more efficiently (me) but how will you ensure that my windows will stay clean (him) we are very technical and have the latest technology to solve your problems (me) thats really great, do you mind if I call you jason, I really like the name jason, so jason, you say my windows will be clean (him) sir I am not jason, I can work right on your computer to help you (me) wow jason that is really great, clean windows are important, are you single? (and so on, finally he got frustrated and hung up warning me that my computer really was infeected)

me too this is so weird i have been recieving calls from them for the past week and they say NOTHING and hang up.

I got a call from 416-360-0172 and then from 416-363-5905.  It was an automated message that said "Google Verification Code xxxxxxx".  They called 3 times.  Then I got a text mesage saying the same thing from 1-727-599-2166, 1-754-263-8343, and 1-614-300-3568 all saying the same message.

Received a call this evening from a "Computer Repair Service". Guy with a Sri Lanken sounding accent says my computer is at risk. When I asked him how he knew this since it was not turned on he started insisting that every computer known ever built is at risk. I told him that I didn't need his help as I do not use any kind of computer repair service. After some more back and forth bickering I told him to go "help" someone else. As I hung up the phone all I hear is swearing.

Indian accent. Call was a windows "update" scam. Hung up when I called him a criminal

I received a call from this number, its a scam. Do not give them any information or access to your computer. They are criminals trying to make a living.

Received a call from this #, tried to call back, kept getting a busy signal.
I have a relative who is ill and don't appreciate an anonymous caller wasting
my time.  Every time my phone rings I am anxious.
