Received three calls in the space of a week from this phone number. Each time I answer the caller hangs up. Annoying!

They're still doing it with the same number. For me they called themselves esolving.com

recieved a call from them "Online PC Care" on 17/10/2011.
They tried to get me to make system adjustments on my computer

My mother was called by this mob today too.  Luckily her laptop was actually at my place so she couldn't do as they asked.  She said they were from Microsoft and they had offered to fix her PC.  She also said they sounded very professional and she was going to do as they asked.  This number is the number they gave if she wanted to call them.I would suggest checking this link out if you've been rung by these people:http://www.police.qld.gov.au/News+and+Alerts/ ... crosoftscam.htm

I received a call stating I have malicious viruses on my pc and it need fixing quickly.  Asked for Identification person stated name as Rony Wilson of Global ID manintains department of windows.  He gave a address of 103 coronal ave, Sydney.  I refused to follow his commands and he was sounding angry and determined saying - "fine let your computer be hacked and don't complain to us it has happenend" I than knew he was up to something.  This guys sound so much Indian accent.  Be very carefull as they are the ones sending emails with " WINDOWS ALERT" or similar asking to confirm your email and password.  Please report this as scam.

While I don't have the number of the caller as he called on our home phone that has no caller ID, but the rest of the descriptions above are just about identical to what happened to me this afternoon.Caller was "Danny" with heavy Indian accent.  Said he was from "Computer Maintenence Department".  After twice asking what company's computer maintenence dep't, he said "World PC Tech".  He went on to advise me that their records showed that my computer had recently accessed a unsafe site on the internet and was probably infected.As I had my own software development business for the last 22 years, I immediately asked him for the IP address that was used and the URL of the dodgy site.  He then said, "Please wait" and promptly hung up.  Pity actually, as I should have memenged to get more info out of him.  We are on a Do-Not-Call list.

That was annoying, but fun....I am in the UK and got the call the other day but had to go to work. I told them to call back another time and they called right on schedule.I then listened to his bullsh*t about the infection but kept causing him to trip up and repeat himself. I even tripped him up because he was adamant I get to my computer immediately - I said which bloody one exactly, I have several?? He repeated that I have an infection nonsense again...Although he was telling me to do things I just stared at my computer :)They dont to know how to get around in Windows 7 - with microsofts support?He then tried to get me onto the websites and I kept telling him that the website was reported to microsoft for phishing / malware and that it was blocked. Why would a company have several different websites to carry out the same tasks? (to keep the scam active!)The best part was when he wanted my email address to send me a direct link - he should already have it, being a legitimate company with my phone number. I told him I dont use emails. He then said 'but you use social networking sites so I should have one' to which I corrected him and said I dont (TRUE) and that they were the ones who said I used them.He passed me onto his team mate who then gave up and said they would call back...The stuff they show you on the computer is just any errors which your computer may pick up on - program crash etc. All mine are sent to microsoft and I receive the repairs automatically if needed.In such an advanced technical world that we live in today - who in their right mind would call you up out the blue to tell you your computer has an infection?Its like me knocking on your door and making up something like you have a bad cough and make you actually believe it - even though you could probably sing like an angel - then sell you some jesus juice to fix your throat ;p All better sir! Congratulations on your recovery...

Just received a call from the same mob.  My phone is already on the Do Not Call list but it obviously doesn't make any difference.  I too would like to know how to report these people as I am concerned for those who are not as aware of the harm they can do.  The call I received today was from THE computer maintenance department but she soon got tired of my asking who she was and hung up.Don't give these people the chance to get into your computer.  Hang up immediately.

My mother is also receiving multiple calls from the (02) 9037 2483 number -- claiming to be from "Computer Technical Support" in North Sydney. The guy calling has an Asian accent and calls himself 'Ryan'. He must work an afternoon shift, as he will always call late afternoon or evening.Again, he claims that my mother has 'computer problems' which can be easily 'fixed' if she downloads a particular file. Funny, but when I called him and ask where exactly he works (as I too, work in North Sydney) my call was suddenly terminated...Yes.. scam it is...
