Received a call from this number tonight at 7:52 PM EST. A man with a thick Indian accent, claiming to be from Windows tech support, "informed" me that my computer had been compromised by cyber hackers and that they were receiving security notices from my computer. I knew it was a scam right away, so I decided to have some fun with they guy. I listened, asked questions, and followed his directions right up until he asked me to start the steps for remote access of my PC. Then I asked him to give me the make, model, and service tag of my laptop since he claimed to be a representative of Windows. Upon questioning him, the man became hostile. I told him to add him to his do-not-call list, and he began threatening to call the police and the FBI if I hung up. Then he promised he would call me back on the same number if I didn't cooperate. I told him I hoped he had a nice day and hung up. Pretty funny experience, but totally a scam. Beware!!!
