Call received early morning EST, from this #, claiming they were from Windows stating that there was a terrible problem on my computer with a virus. Male voice with an East Indian accent (like Raj on "Big Bang Theory"). I cut him off before he could say any more.

Tell 'em you have a Mac - that'll shut 'em up in a hurry!

Lady from India, early in a.m., about computer problem. Same call received many times last month from different number.

Unfortunately I did not have time to speak to "Windows Support" caller. Had something else to do. Pity. I have a Linux box set up with TeamViewer--the "softwares" these folks usually have you download so they can take control of and "fix" your computer. (TeamViewer is, itself, a legitimate product which I use to help distant friends actually fix their computers.) My Linux TeamViewer is set up to deny control to outsiders--not that it would matter to "Windows Support" since it is Linux. BUT, I set it up so that when I link "Windows Support" computer to mine, I can take control of their box if they have not taken precautions. Been wanting to test it, but alas I've not the time today. Pity.

Female with Indian accent claiming to be with "Windows" called at 10:15 pm on Sunday night (10/12/14).  When I asked her if she realized how late it was,she said that it was urgent that I go to my computer immediately.  I hung up feeling bad for those who don't know better and are preyed upon by these people.
