8/21/15 I received a call from 866-662-2747 from a person named Rosie today at approx. 3:55pm Eastern standard time telling me my email is being attacked.
Caller: Rosie
Caller stated there are virus on my computer that should be removed, that they have scanned and are aware are on my computer.
I played dumb for a while to obtain more info (the phone number) from them. Eventually I kept changing the operating system I had(OSX & Windows) to see what the caller would do. They were still persistent that I still had viruses. I was transferred to a Pakistani sounding "Mark Williams", whom I then told I use Linux not Windows or OSX; I requested that they cease and desist any further communication with me after I called them out on trying to take advantage of people with no computer knowledge.
I am positive it was a scam, to take advantage of people whom have minimal to no knowledge about computers.
Caller: Computer Maintenance Department
