    Just received a call from this number.
    I have had this before and I fell for it.

    He sounds like someone from an Indian call center except with fake background office ambiance.

    He will say your computer is at risk and is pinging their server and you need to do (X) in order to secure your computer. He will take you through a process that will seemingly prove to you that your computer has issues when im sure the stuff you fish out of your computer is normal.

    He will make out that your computer has been jacked and is being used for hacker activity. He will then suggest you download a chat program so he can speak with you on there and explain what is going on... DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAMME!  It will give them direct access to your computer. he will without you knowing it, change the permissions on your C drive making it impossible for y ou do do anything with it. you will be able to log in but you will not be able to access any document or run any program. Effectively locking your computer up. You will be forced to either PAY to have your computer unlocked or you will have to do what I did, format the whole thing... which you wont be able to do under normal circumstances. i needed to get a computer technician to do it as the Disk drive was a C drive function.. which i wasnt allowed to use anymore..

    Do not fall for the fear factor and the guilt trip he lays on. Professional con-artist who will effectively hold your computer Ransom.

    Just received 5 calls from these guys. My wife asked them to stop calling and they made a rape threat! Reported the matter to the police.
