I had a call about 3 weeks ago, and it sounded suss, so I hung up..... just had another one today, and decided to let him think I was falling for it..... I spoke to "John Martin"..... and he was very hap[py to give me the number to call him back to verify.... Luckily I check with a friend who is computer savvy!!

I received a call from the number (02) 8006 1421 from Kashif Brown claiming to fix my spyware problem. Told me to give him the windows version, i was really suspicious and kept the phone

I wish phones had a red button you could press that would electrocute the person on the other end.

We had this same type of call and I'm glad I googled this phone number as I was speaking to "John Martin".  The scary part is they call you by name and make it sound fairly legit - lucky my mother in law passed the phone over as she had no idea what they were talking about.

Had the same experience. Two calls this week (I hung up on the first, as his accent was so thick I couldn't understand him and the ambient noise behind him was so loud). They persisted and called back tonight - same scenario as described above.
I was told I need to pay for 1 years protection $109, 2 years $280 and "lifetime" protection, $300+. I refused to pay on the spot in this manner, with nothing in writing etc, and asked for yet more verification that they were who they claimed to be, and was given this phone number to contact also. The senior technician I spoke with was Peter Parker (as if the whole thing wasn't sus enough!)

My woman was named Pamala Watson with a thick indian accent.. she got so frustrated with my questions that she told me to .. quote.. 'go to hell' before she hung up on me!!It was about 'bugs' in my computer... ugh!
