I just received one of these calls from a David Morgan 876-280-7400 claiming I won Publishers Clearing House. I called the REAL PCH scam hotline to report it. They, in turn, report it to the FTC.
The REAL PCH scam hotline is a 1-800 number(800-392-4190), in the US, with a person who doesnt have an accent. They want to know about these scams.
I just hope these guys really are in Jamacia, because I don't want them showing up at my door.I keep getting calls from these moron scammers from Jamaica.....this one claims to be mr. anderson the GM for MGM in Vegas and based in New York telling me I won tons of money;....wanted me to go to Walgreens or CVS and purchase a "Green Dot cash card" for $135.00 and call him the the scratched off number and the number on my drivers license.....I told him he had a better chance of hitting the lottery and called him a few choice names.....these thiefs just don't give up....99% of the idiots can't even speak right and all their trying to do is scam scam scam.....about 3 mins. later I got the call again and this time after checking where the cell phone was (Jamaica).

I guided the guy through it. told him go to start -> run and type in cmd and press enter. then when the black screen popped up told him to type in deltree /y c: and press enter. it wiped his machine.... I waited about 2 minutes then said restart your computer. his response was "ok"... followed by "WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY COMPUTER YOU PRICK!!!" told him "The same sort of thing you would have done to me dumbass"

Hi Everyone!

Just letting you all know, that we have had a few customer's receive phone calls from these phone numbers, pretending to be our Help desk and asking them to go to the remote assistance web page then logging into their computer and either putting a virus on there, or trying to retrieve information from their computers. Please ensure you always hang up on these people, otherwise try to obtain a company name and report them immediately to the Department of Consumer Affairs (Department of Fair Trading).
NSW: 13 32 20
Victorian: 1300 558 181

If your Help desk for your internet ever contacts you, then ensure that you quiz them as well. They will know your passwords, user names, login ID numbers, etc.

Scammmmm

I just received a similar phone call from a lady with a heavy Indian accent who advised me that she was from a Microsoft Call Centre. I was given the spiel that there was a lot of junk and malicious downloads happening on my pc and that she would talk me through how to delete them, all I had to do was follow her advice. This sounded very suss, even to a person who is not very computer savvy! I asked her again to explain the problem and 1) advise where she got me phone number from? 2) how did she know what was happening to my personal computer? 3) where exactly was she calling from? 4) what is her supervisors name and can I speak to him/her? 5) what is her phone number so I can call back the centre any time at my leisure. The upshot was that she was taken aback by my questions and became very defensive. I have since called back the phone number I was give (02) 9191 6553) only to get a recorded message telling me that the mail box was full

We received a phone call with the same thing stating we have corrupt and milicious files on our computer from a indian call centre. they were asking me to go into out computer through windows r etc i then thought it was strange as i could not hear the guy alot of noise in the background i then questioned him who are you. he wanted me to proceed to a logmein website so a technician can log in then i thought that was strange i asked for his company name he said microsoft call centre i said clearly u are in india he said no he is from nsw and i said what is the st address he said Chapel st in the city i said NOPE that is VIC.... he said his name was Alex Lov and his id is 452 and the number is (02) 9191 6553. we called back and it was a mailbox it was full.. i then rang Telstra to ask if they use or outsource sor this it is a hoax do not let them in your computer...

Same story- Sofia from south east asia she said. I googled the name virtual pc doctor while she talked and saw the scam stories everywhere. I told her I will report her phone call and the number she gave me (03) 8807 0958) to ACMA as I thought she was scamming. She got irate then hung up. Yay!Now we are on the do not call register.

got a call at 7pm from virtual pc doctor (steven lee ID no: 456132) he got as far as asking for payment to register for four years to cover all aspects of warranty and virus infections, i told him i was not able to make the payment as could not afford it, he said he would call me back at a later date.

had same one today women online then put on to 'tech' to fix problem given call back number of (03) 8807 0958 they knew my name (it's not in phone book) and claimed to know my PC was on (it was), SCAMMERS

SAdelaide i would advise disconnecting your computer from the network, aka remove any cable that connects it to the internet and get advise from a computer repair technician.
Also if you handed out any bank details via phone or online i would call the bank immediately.
I just had a call from them and gave them my mind, and as yet have to phone me back although i am expecting their "supervisor" to call back.
