- C J| 1 replyRepeated calls from this 205-280-0212 claiming they needed to talk to me about my computer sending signals to Micosoft error message, I informed him O knew he was a scammer and I hung up but would call back again the next day with the same MO
- Caller: claim they are Micosoft
- CJ replies to C JOne more item after they would call I would return a call to them immediately always a message, number no in service or disconnected
- no jokeWhen this number called my caller id said unknown name, number: 011205-2800212. Already it is showing as an out of country caller as indicated by the 011 part of the number. I did not answer it and they did not leave a message. I figure it's someone operating a scam. If they call again I will report them to authorities. Scammers beware.
- Caller: unknown
- BUSTED!This name/ number has been calling my # ~once a day for the past week. We regularly receive calls from tele-marketers and bill-collectors the like and so generally will not answer a number from an area-code other than our own. Also we currently have voice-mail service from our phone/ cable company, and by neglecting to set a greeting, when automated systems go to the voice-mail they will sometimes continue as if someone has answered and the automated message/ menu will be recorded in a message.
AND...
Apparently these clowns aren't much brighter than an automated calling system. I have a recorded call from this "Ada Green" recorded on my voice-mail that goes on for ~5.5 minuets. Its like a pocket call. The overall "Indian sweatshop theme comes through strong and one voice can clearly can be heard speaking english in an Indian accent in the background. From the sound of it the "clear voice" is training another person. This other person I am supposing is the caller because breathing and mouth noises can be heard as if into a headset throughout the call. I cant be sure if the "clear voice" is training another what to say, or actually on a call, but what is clear is the intent of the scam, at least in its current incarnation. PASSWORDS!
CONCLUSION:
I have them recorded saying something like this -Your computer has X issues at the moment. This makes it "vulnerable" to "hackers and viruses." And "I need you to go in and change ALL of your passwords" because they have likely "been compromised." "Yes, all your passwords" "any websites containing personal information" and anything that protects info that "hackers" could exploit.
As an above caller pointed out, their M.O. is to gain access to marks' computers through team-view software. So taken together their goal should be obvious! I read most of the other post here and since everyone here seemed smart enough to "call this duck a duck" immediately and even if they played along got out before giving them access to their machine, I figured I'd share this strangely gleaned insight with everyone.- Caller: Indian sweatshop
- Anonym replies to DashThe same happened to me!!! The noise in background sounded like they were having a party!! They get mad if you don't go to your computer !!! With all the tech in the world looks like the government could do something about these SCAMS!!!!!

- LaurieWe've received 2 calls from this number, they sound like they are from India. They told me I had a large amount of viruses on my computer, I said "oh really". He said yes and wanted me to get on my computer. I said hell no and hung up. They called today and my husband told him he couldn't understand him and hung up. There was lots of noise and talking in the background. Caller ID said Aida Green.

- CarisaI just received a call from this guy with a middle eastern accent stating I was going to lose my computer, and he could help me remove the malware that was on it. He stated he was from the Microsoft Windows department and he had the license to Windows and my computer. This is very irritating. I received the call as stated from another post telling me to press certain keys on my computer that was posted on Dec. 2013.
