I am stunned this # isn't in Call Control's community blacklist already - as all of the following info came from Googling the phone # and reading the reports at 800notes.com! This # is being used by scammers who claim they are Microsoft calling because your computer is being hacked right NOW. If you believe them, they will walk you through instructions that will give them complete control over your computer including the mouse, and then demand you pay them $299 to get control over your computer back. Callers are always reported as having Indian accents, and they are very pushy - saying whatever they have to in order to convince you to follow their instructions to "protect" your computer. They might even tell you the $299 is the charge for these "protective" services if you still think they are the "good guys" by then. These reports on 800notes go back YEARS.
claims be from Microsoft even gave me his name and another phone number to reach with his ext. I called Microsoft and they are aware of the scam and for more info to view there website
