QLD, Just had someone try to tell me about my computer sending errors to mirosoft. The person could not give me ABN just the www.support4upc.com on a dodgy internet phone line dont fall for it people just have a laugh at them trying so hard to sound legit.

My partner got a call today asking for me.  She told them that I was at work and they responded by saying that I had phoned them asking for pc help.  They left a return phone number.
Then we googled the phone number and up came the forums.  Thanks for the info guys, it's great that we can find out others have had the same phone calls and what resulted. It just makes me so mad.

I got the same phone call from software support4pc a while ago and fell for it after paying these people $240 dollars for ten years of anti virus protection. After a while i realised my pc was the same as it had been before there so called "Clean up", how can we stop these pricks from doing this?, cant someone hack there network and bring them to justice....i hate them.

Just had a call (18:00. 7.4.12) from a 'sub microsoft' support company in George St Sydney suggesting I have been sending a lot of system errors to microsoft and my problem was from a trogan virus.
I was shown a 'page' on my computer with warnings and notice but on closer inspection these looked normal.
They instructed me how to access my unique microsoft code number (almost sucked in at this stage) and then they asked me to access teamviewer. This looked like an access programme to me and I refused to go any further. They said my computer was in danger of collapsing and would be unusable if I didn't do anything about it right now.
I believe this is a scam.

These pricks got me on the weekend. I dont usually get sucked into this stuff but because of my limited computer knowledge and how convincing they were, I went along with them. They directed me to the so called infected files and trojan horse viruses and then off to teamviewer,,,,,, bastards got in. They got $200 and card details. I cancelled credit card and turned off computer and router within 5 minutes of the "" fixing"" my computer because i had a call from a mate within 2 minutes of hanging up from them saying he got dne too. their ph numbers are (02) 8003 5916 and (02) 8005 1832. The prick i dealt with was sam.  never never talk to anyone about these things if you get called. I have learnt and hopefully convince others of this scam

I also have had 4 phone calls from Software Support for PC saying that I have error messages when I asked for more details, they wanted to dial in and I said no and they have hung up on me now 4 times. I am now about to ring Microsft to find out what is going on.
