who called

This is a totaly scam, what they will do is try to get you to go to a website, and download a program  that will allow them access to your computer. once they have access they will hang up and download any files they find interesting ie they are looking for banking information credit statements etc. anything with which to steal your ID.
They go by various names, the one that called me said he was from the world security office (yeah right)
other names they go by are microsoft security team, windows security, AVG security, Norton Security, etc.

They have been very active calling Canadian numbers lin the past couple of weeks, I work in a call center for an ISP and I am getting 4 or 5 people a day calling to ask me about this.

my advise is to just hang up, then report the number to your local law enforcement agency .

received a call from a company claiming to be called Softtech, claiming that my computer was at risk. I asked lots of questions, they gave me this number to call back 201-338-6148 (it was blocked on the called id). THIS IS A SCAM!  I hung after having some fun with them and wasting their time, Please don't fall for something like this!

April 2/12 - just got a call from the above number by a foreign accent person, difficult to make out what he was talking about.   Heard in the background the voice of another person, sounded like a call pool.  Told me that they had repeated rerports of errors on my windows.  Asked how he got my tel.#, replied they had the tel.#s from all windows users.  Told him that I would consult with my tech. assistant person and determine whether there was any validity to his concerns.
