i did receive the same call. is this really a scam? they did have remote acces to my computer and im getting crazed! i was charged for stuff i can't find on my computer now

hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii is anna i told to mark to give a call bak

I was just talking to my mother and apparently a "Brad Williams" called with a very thick east indian accent. He's claiming my Dad's windows has been hacked and that he needs to call right away. Like the above poster said, it's interesting that someone with a very anglo sounding name calls with a heavy foreign accent. Due to the way my father operates, my mother also asked for "Brad's" ID number. I find it very suspicious that someone has an ID number like 00123WSC for an apparent MS representative. I'm going to assume this is a scam.

Mark Benson seems to be a rather anglophone name.  However, the use of english in this message is horrendous.  If anyone calls you claiming to be from "Windows" or "Microsoft", they are lying.  Microsoft gets MILLIONS of errors and messages from PCs every day.  They don't call us on these messages.  They use them to track potential bugs and fix them.  Mark Benson doesn't exist.

I think you are a scammer and you are trying to divert the mind of us . I got a call from that number and they provide me services . I am very happy .

THANK YOU

i just received a call and this is the number they gave me to call them back, when i wanted to check their authenticity.  When they wanted remote access to my computer i realized that it was a scam and hung up.
The number they called me from was 1-818-843-9669

This was the number given by a scam artist who convinced one of my clients to install his virus software.

Do not believe the comments on this page saying their computer run faster, its probably the scammers trying to convince visitors that its a legit situation.

OH MY GOD THEY R GOD FOR MY COMPUTERS, I HAVE NEVER SEEN MY COMPUTER TO RUN SO FAST, THEY HAVE BOOSTED THE SPEED OF MY COMPUTER, AND I AM REALLY SATISFIED WITH THEIR SUPPORT, AND ALSO THEY DID NOT LIE TO ME, THEY TOLD ME CLEARLY THAT THEY WERE NOT FROM MICROSOFT

I also got a call from same number and i took the services . Now my computer is working very fast and i am not facing any problem also . They are a Experienced and good technician .They have directly mentioned that they are not from MICROSOFT . I appreciate them .

Received call from someone claiming to be from 'Windows 7' support centre. There was no number that appeared on call display, so I asked for a number to return the call to, to ensure they were legit.
This m.o. is a documented scam. Do not give them any personal information, or allow them to access your computer remotely.
