Leave a CommentCall came in on 1(208) 512-1184. "Hi there I'm calling you from Comcast Xfinity to let you know that your existing account is qualified for 50% off in order to avail the discount kindly call us back at 866-978-5978 from 8 AM to 5 PM Pacific standard time thank you and have a great day"
They called twice. I tried to call back and got nothing. Looked it up here and sure enough another phonespam. I'm getting ready to answer these with the old "stay on the line, you have called a crime scene" line.
Same thing, call from above number, Indian man asked if I was near my computer because there was malicious software on it. I lied and told him I live on a farm and have never even seen a computer much less used one or own one. He ***g up at that point.
I received a call from 866-978-5978. An gentleman whom sounded to be of Indian origin claimed to be with a Global Tech****ist and after the call I also found a domain with that same name and information he'd provided. I was told that "people in my area had been experiencing problems with their computers" and asked if I was close to my computer, so he could help me with removal some junk files. Well, I'm a tech support agent myself, so he didn't get very far with this obvious scam. I called him out and ended the call. As a side note... thanks to my having an Ooma phone system; I'm conveniently able to block numbers from ever calling a***n.
claim to be with microsoft, request access to computer to remove some virus, when asked for contact details they **** up
