I just got a call from Pamela. Wow she is persistent i nearly fell for it. She would do any thing to sell me the deal of joining ACCOR and get free accomdation and 50% off everything holiday related. I feel a bit stupid i am glad that while i was on the phone i googled her number she was calling off and asked her name. I hope no else falls for it!

Yes this call (08) 7200 0365 still coming from "Microsoft" - today twice they called my aunty. Ryan Williams, and someone DeCosta claiming there were a number of errors to be fixed, and could she please go to this website and enter in a code allowing them to access her computer. Repeatedly said "This is not a scam ma'am, how can I prove to you that this is not a scam" - trying to reassure her of course.

Well I guess it's working somewhere or they wouldn't keep doing it.

Call type: attempted fraud or scammer, that should really be an option, but telemarketer is close enough.

Same call today. As I am a PC tech who has clients who have been scammed by these types of calls, I was quite interested to listen to the spiel.There was no real onformation in the call just lots of words malware, viruses, windows etc. When they stated that these things "couldn't be removed" I asked "well how can you remove them then?" they replied "because we are technicians", to which I had a little chuckle. I had to leave so I got their number to call them back.I might call them back at get their logmein account info if I can and report them to logmein, maybe they will shutthem down?There must be somewhere this can be reported to. The number 087200365 is an Australian PSTN number, it may be redirected O/S, but surely it can be shutdown from this end.

I have had the pleasure of 3 calls from this 'company'.  As our phone number is listed under my wife's maiden name (Telstra havent bothered to update the phone book for 10 years!), I am immediately suspicious of anyone enquiring after Mr or Mrs Smith.  My wife took the fist (2 weeks ago) call and when she said she was not Mrs Smith, the caller called her a lair, to which my wife took exception and hung up.  They called back within 30 seconds and I took the call. I listened to the speil about the danger to my PC before laughing telling the caller I thought he was pulling my leg.  At this point he launched into a verbal tirade calling me mother f****r among other things before hanging up. I guess the call wasn't being recorded for training purposesTonight I received a 3rd call from 365PC Support.  This time I asked questions.  They told me they were located in Westpac House, 91 King William Street, Adelaide.  As I know Adelaide reasonably well I persisted with questions.  I asked which floor they were on (Westpac House has 31 Floors - Adelaides biggest building housing several companies) and was told they owned it all. I asked which other road the building faced and he told me to look it up (obviously becoming frustrated).  I kept him on the line for 17 minutes asking qusetions and having a general chat.  This time his name was Nathan and he was Portuguese.  He likes beer and whiskey, but not grass or hash. We discussed night clubbing, horses and match fixing.  I asked him where he lived and he said Heaven.  I think he had had enough of me.

i to today 29/10/2010 had the same call stating she was from microsoft her name was pamela with indian accent and worker id A408 they to took over my computer and tryed to tell me i had bad malicious data on my computer then trying to get me to pay 300 to put some anti virus software to protect me on the comp when i told here i had no credit card and some of us aussies are poor she started to get really revved up as to say i didnt pay she was getting angry and started demand things put in the end i had a suspicion they where a hoax trying to get money but will be reporting it to the cops or someone to sort this out

Same Call but from Jordin also Indian acsentSame Company name 365 PC Storage same adeliade Phone number (08) 7200 0365all the same claims, I hung up on him after 5 or so minutes, This is the second call we have had from these people.

i had this guy hassling my 73 YO mother. had her install from logmein.com and took control of her computer. he said he was calling from microsoft, and that he had detected viruses on her computer, and wanted her to pay for ongoing security support. he asked for her credit card details, and at this point she balked. obviously this guy (he called himself "shane" but it's obviously the same indian guy) is findable, so why haven't the police been to visit him with bit effoff belting sticks?

also, why is there no call type here for FRAUD?
