(800) 300-0245

Correction to previous submission: I just got a call from 800-300-02***from apparently India, claiming he had to show me a problem with my service on my computer. I asked what service and he said just to sign into my computer. He then told me to press CONTROL, WINDOWS KEY, and R key so he could fix the problem. I kept asking him what that would do, and he kept saying to just do it -to type the key sequence in. I kept him on the phone do, asking questions and while I had him on the phone I Google what would happen if I did as he requested. When I googled it came up as a scam that would do things not good to my computer. I kept asking what company he was with and he said AOL. I told him that was not my internet service provider, had the wrong number, and that he was scamming people, then ***g up on him. Warning! Some scammers will call and say you have a virus or whatever and that they will 'help' you 'fix' it (they will upload a virus to your computer). If they will ask you to push the Windows Key and R at the same time., don't do it. Don't run whatever they tell you. Do NOT do what they say, they steal your information! Most importantly, report them to: [email protected], and ftc.gov/complaint
