Today I received a call, the number was withheld) from someone claiming to work for Windows Security Service.
Same as above (Carl Smith). Said he (Peter) was calling from California but had strong Indian accent with American overtones. Alarm bells rang but I continued with him until he asked for money. I said I wanted to investigate this and he gave me the no 2096764533 to call back. After looking on the internet I decided to call back to see who answered the phone and received a voice message that 'the person was unavailable'.
Is this just a scam to get money for unsupplied security or are they able to access financial information from my computer?
