I received a call today, this is the first at least from this number. I get a lot of calls from California numbers. I didn't answer, and they hung up as soon as my answering machine came on.

Caller had a thick Indian/Pakistani accent and said he was calling from the Windows Service Center and that my computer was infected.  After repeated attempts to get me to enter a command in the Run dialog, he called me an idiot, swore at me and eventually hung up.  Not very smart, but at least I saved someone else from about 15 min of his time. Call type: MALICIOUS FRAUD

Prank Call
Since several years I get these phone calls here in The Netherlands from people speaking with an Indian accent claiming that they call on behalf of Microsoft. The number that shows up on my caller ID changes after a couple of months. Some time ago a Japanese number was used, now it is an American number. Any time the number switches, I first get a call in which a woman's voice says 'goodbye' after 10 seconds. Then for  several weeks I will get the 'microsoft calls' every other day or so. (Although they don't work on Sundays; must be God fearing people). After a while it stops, and then a month later it will start all over again. In the Dutch media people have been warned for these scams. What they try to do is to let them take over your computer, like helpdesks can sometimes do. Obviously they try to get a hold of bank and card accounts etc.

I received a phone call from "pay phone" and I said, "hello hello hello" and then someone said, "hello darling, are we having sex tonight?" I laughed and stated, "you have the wrong number, but have a good day!" So weird.

Guy with heavy Indian or Asian accent called from this number, said his name was Kevin O'Brien (ha). Said my computer was sending messages indicating I had a virus. I hung up the first time; he called back and said "why you hang up on me?". I said "because I don't go for scams" and hung up again.

Answered call from this number.  There was a tremendous amount of background chatter and voices.  Finally, someone coughed, then said "hello" a couple of times.  I asked what she wanted.  She said she was calling about my computer.  I said, "What are you talking about?? I don't even own a computer!"  She hung up.

Got a call this morning and because I have Caller ID and a phone bundle, the number also appeared on my TV screen. It said 'Pay Phone'. At first I thought it was from my son, since he is traveling and sometimes his cell phone goes in-and-out depending on service area. Then I knew it was a scam when there was nobody on the other end.

This is a scam, in the worst possible way!
These people are relentless. They say they're from Microsoft windows technical support. I told them that I have an apple computer and they hung up on me. Today, they call again. I tell her that I have an apple and this is a scam and don't call me anymore. She then proceeds to call back 2 more times in a row!!! I ask if she understood what I said, she says yes, she understood but she's calling back b/c I was rude to her. So I got more rude and told her to go F herself, how's that for rude. Then she called back again and I told her I would report her and she told me to go ahead.
I am groeing really sick and tired of these scam artists. They are trying to gaon control of my computer and they should know this : IT WILL BE A COLD DAY IN HELL BEFORE I FALL FOR THEIR SHEME!!

Last night, I received a call from this number but whoever was on the line did not speak.  I hung up.  The interesting thing is that my phone's caller ID listed this number as a payphone.

I wasn't home when this number called.

After reading the comments on this board, it's obvious I didn't miss anything worthwhile.

I also live in Norway and got two calls from this number, a minute apart, registered on my caller llst from a couple of days ago. I have caller ID and I NEVER answer my phone unless I can see who the caller is. I try to get info on unknown numbers. So here I am......I searched for this telephone number on google and found out that it's a prank caller.

Prank Call
I live in Norway and today I got a call from this number. The guy didn't speak english at all and the only thing I understood was that he said he was from Windows. I asked him how he got this job without beeing able to speak english and than he put some kind of supervisor on the phone. The "supervisor" told me out of the blue to "go f... myself" and hung up on me.

We have received several calls from 607 397 8256. They do not give up. They have become very abusive with me on the phone. they say that they are from Microsoft and have detected a virus on my computer or that they have a refund for us from our computer software we purchased. He has  a very strong East Indian accent.  Today I told them that I am connecting them on a three way call between RCMP, myself and himself. He hung up. I am so frustrated that I believe I am going to purchase a whistle.

The caller ID said the number was from Worcester, NY
Before I could even ask who was calling, a man with an Indian accent said he was responding to an error message sent from my computer and he could help me fix my computer problems.  I told him my computer is working fine and to not call this number again as I am reporting his number to my state AG's office for a scam.

This Man called me 5 times in 1 day.  He says he is from Micrsoft and my computer has sent error messages and that he is authorize to fix it.  He is very hard to understand as his accent is either aribic for indian.  I new he was a scam so i told him to send me an authorization code for safety measures and he never did.  He wanted me to sign in to log me in 123 so that he can gain access to my computer.  I told him i knew all bout that website.  Do not, Do not trust this man or anyone from this number.  It is a landline phone number from Newyork.  Stay safe and do not trust..

I received a call from this number, indicating it was from a pay phone, but no one responded when I answered. I'm glad I decided to check the number and won't answer when/if it appears again.

Same guy called me from this number and a 559 number. Was asking to speak to my boss. Wouldn't say the topic, so I let him know that he was never going to get through to him without a topic.
