@Cole:  For the past 3 days I have had phone calls from this number that shows up on my call id which does not even exist...telemarketer with Spam; best thing to do when you get these kind of numbers is to try stay on the phone with them for 3 minutes and royally cheese them off as they get paid by commission by the number of calls that they can make as that is how they make their money....More time you waste of theirs the less money they make and continue to try and con someone else out of their hard earned cash.

I don't like these calls anymore than anyone else but I disagree with the idea of staying on the line to punish the caller.  The person placing the call is usually some poor sap who is desperate to earn a living.  If they don't make their quota they lose their job.  The real villain is the person who hired them and convinced them they were providing a service by making these calls.  They sit back and make the big money while others do their dirty work.

They are trying to get you to turn on your computer so they can take control of it saying they are repairing it from errors making your computer run slow.

Got a phone call yesterday supposedly from Microsoft. Got a call this am at 6:30 from the number above. Didn't answer in time. No message and couldn't call the # back.
