They called from 202-559-1837 and claimed to be from Microsoft and that our computers were being used in a crime, and we needed to clean the computer. Unfortunately, a family member linked with the scammer through remote access software, and the computer screen turned black, and the victim then demanded the scammers get off his computers. He turned off his computer. I asked the scammers why they did not contact law enforcement if they had information that our computer was being used in a crime. The scammers then tried to call back twice, from the same number. We restored the computer immediately -- I was afraid the "scanning" was actually planting viruses or trackers.

They said they had my computer address and I knew this was scam and said I had none. Insisted I had a computers and he had the address Like the others a voice of another country.

Sadly, your money is probably long gone. Not much hope to get it back unless they catch these scammers and most of these scammers are not in this country. You don't say what exactly the money went to, but most of the posts look like the ol government grant scam.
To report the fraud, go here:

Their number is listed , along with an email address, at the top of the page.

| Austin 2014-04-10 00:44:49 Unknown |
I got a call from this answer and nobody was there
| Kathy 2014-04-01 22:56:29 Prank Call |
Kevin Nash, first call from him stated I had been approved for a grant of $7000 and all I had to do was pay $149.00. Haha, then I received a call from Mark Brown, sounded just like Kevin Nash stating their IRS depart was waiting to issue me a $10000 grant and that I needed to pay $770.00 and if I didn't send the money that the irs would issue an arrest warrant since I initiated the grant request and I owe taxes. I told them they were scammers. I then got a call from the same number from Nick Wilson stating the same thing so I told him to send me everything in writing specifying EXACT details of what this was about and how they got my information. First of all they had my nickname and kept stating it was my full legal name.

Keep calling my number and not leaving a message.

- they are also impersonating DEA officials / IRS / FAKE LAW FIRMS etc.... with threats to arrest you unless you immediately send money via wire transfer / western union to some offshore country !!!!! obvious scam !!!
some are landlines...many are cell phones...some are spoofed and linked to offshore foreign call centers / countries !!!!
we've traced back most of these numbers to offshore foreign call centers mostly in INDIA / THAILAND / AFRICA / JAMAICA ETC....
here's a few other numbers posted from the same area code offering a wide variety of scams / fake emails and scams after posting something on craigslist ( old scam ) ...... collecting for non existant " payday loans "....free money / scam giveaways / calling on behalf of a humane society..... $1,000's in free gov't money......... etc etc.....stories change out all the time......and the usual nonsense!!!
