Use HitmanPro to rid yourself of the virus. Run JRT (Junkware Removal Tool) and run your MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials). Pay for HitmanPro...it's awesome.

I received a call from a company they referenced as "Calls2Geeks". It was an individual with an heavy indian accent who insisted I get on my computer right away and go to their site. I repeated asked where they got my number and they said an online survey. I asked if it was survey I completed and he did not answer.
It seems to be a scam. He continued to say he was just trying to help and that I am a "registered Windows user". I have a mac with no windows software. I said I wasn't interested in the service he provided (whatever it was) and he called back and asked why I hung up on him. I hung up and again and he called back again.
Don't buy whatever it is they are selling. The connection was terrible and it was very difficult to hear him.

I got a phone call from a company calling themselves (ironically enough) Calls2geeks. With a heavy Indian accent a guy warned me that my computer was at very high risk to be infected.

Smelling the scam, I took my most naive tone asking him if this was about a new virus: No, he said: that?s even worst! I showed myself very concerned so he got convinced that I was the perfect prey he was looking for. He then guided me to msconfig/services for checking if there is any service that is disabled. Expectedly enough, just like in any PC, there are an all bunch of them. So the guy said that this was very bad for my computer and every time it would boot, it would worsen the situation. Of course, I declared my self terrified... The guy then guided me to his final goal: showmypc.com. where I would give him full access to my computer. Of course, I did not go there and turned him down.

These guys are scammer. They want to take control of your computer .They will violate your privacy, thus actually putting you at very danger by accessing all your private data, mail, preferred website, bank accounts and so on.
They can turn you pc into a robot working for them. They can store on it illegal content to be shared on the web.

If anyone you don?t know asks you to navigate to showmypc.com, teamviwer.com or any similare remote control application, TURN THEM DOWN.

Real anti virus company would never call you, nor would Microsoft for saying that your computer is at risk.

PLEASE CIRCULATE THIS.

Caller says he was calling from Windows and was calling to fix my PC. Asks me to get on my PC fast so he can fix it. I asked what company he was calling from and he says Calls2Geek. (I ask him to phonetically spell the company name as accent very hard to understand)  I ask where he got my number. His reponse is undecipherable due to heavy accent. I ask for a return phone # so I can call him back. Gives me 1-800-806-0589. (He hears me laughing)  Enquires why I am laughing and truly sounds hurt. He won't give up so I hang up. I input the above phone number into Google search and find this blog.

This is a scam and if you fall for it, they will install spyware and malicious software on your computer and then they CHARGE YOU FOR DOING THIS, claiming they've just helped you.   They are located overseas, so no one in the United States can help you get your money back.  You will then need to take your computer to a legitimate computer store to have the malicious software and spyware removed and your security software updated or installed.  

If you store personal information on your computer, you will also be subjecting yourself to identity theft if you fall for this scam and give them remote access to your computer.  If you are a victim of this scam, you should check your credit reports for free at www.annualcreditreport.com, which is the only true free credit report from all three national credit reporting agencies.

If you've fallen for this scam, immediately unplug your computer and take it to a legitimate computer store to have the malware and spyware removed.

This company keeps calling me at work.  Finally I got one of the callers, who claimed to be calling from "Windows" to provide the phone number (since it's blocked when the company calls).  Interestingly, the person who answered claimed to work for "Technical Support" and insisted that nobody at the company works for "Windows".  The person claimed no knowledge of the phone number that I was calling!

I, too, have asked them not to call me. This time I strung them along for a while by giving them the wrong information such as using Windows XP, said I had opened up the search feature in Windows, etc. I had not clicked on anything. I finally got their website address since their phone number does not appear on my caller ID. I then told the agent that I had repeatedly asked them not to call me and that I am a knowledgeable computer user who is aware of their scam. I also informed him that if anyone called me again, I will sue their company for harrassing me (I have all of the dates and times they have called) and my daughter works for a law firm that is happy to help me.

I just got a call from a person claiming to be from Calls2Geek. He said he was calling for my wife to check my computer's health. Since I'm a computer professional (MCSE, MCITP Enterprise Administrator, CCNA, VCP), I knew this must be a scam, but I played along. He had me open the prefetch folder on my computer, and asked me to double click on some files (not sure why). I double clicked on a .pf file, but since the .pf extension isn't associated with any applications, Window of course prompted me to either search for a program with which to open the file or select one manually. I read the message, and he told me to try another file. This time I picked a .ini file that opened in notepad. When I told him that, he asked me if I knew what the files in that folder were used for. I told him Windows puts those files there to speed up the boot process. He laughed and said I must be technical. I told him my certifications, he said that he had the same cert and promptly hung up.

Ok, so my wife fell for some sort scam from someone claiming to be Microsoft who asked her to go to class2geek.com. Unfortunately she bought their product and downloaded their software. When I found out what happened I used avg and it found a Trojan horse. I think I've deleted everything they downloaded/installed. Is there anything else I can do to ensure my PC is safe?

This John Black, claims he is technical support and wants us to buy in his program.  He insisted that I get on the computer and on the internet to their webpage>  I told him that I was right in the middle of ironing clothes.  He did not listen to me as I repeated myself to him  five times and after, six times asking him for the phone number that he gave me, I WILL NOT BUY WHATEVER THEY ARE OFFERING.  This JOHN BLACK, in my opinion, must be a hacker of some sort, or someone running an unethical business, maybe both.  Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY!!!  DO NOT!!!  Think about this, for a minute, that if it were a legit business, wouldn't it show on caller ID?  Why are there a lot of negatives on this number and mystery why he wants you to go to his webpage?  Ask this JOHN BLACK how he got your number, in the first place?  When things don't feel right, check it out like I did as you are reading the reviews posted here.  I don't have the time to waste on this individual and will give the phone number and his name to the proper authorities to handle.  I have also requested to be put on his DO NOT CALL LIST.

To clarify: what these guys try to do is get you to connect to their web site and download what they claim is a diagnostic tool--it's not legit. It's a piece of attack software (sometimes called "malware")--once installed, you have to pay them to "service" your computer.

If you hear from these guys, do NOT, under any circumstances, go to a web page or download any software they recommend.

This is the phone number for a telephone "social engineering" attack by an outfit named Calls2geek.com. They claim to be calling in response to a request for help from "the police department"--and ask you to go to your computer, where they will "help you identify and fix any problems as a result of this attack."

The person who called me had a very heavy Indian or Pakistani accent, and was obviously calling from a call center where many other people (with similar accents) were making calls--and reading from the same script.

I was faintly curious to see what kind of mischief he was up to--but I have a project to finish, so I just told him that I'm on the Do Not Call list, and if I hear from him again I'll call the police.

I got a call also - hung up - he called back 4 times - said we were "cut off".

I do use iyogi.com as a remote support service; it is not free, but it is legitimate.

I have received a couple of calls from this number but it does not show up on my caller i.d.. The first time, I tried to get the guy to give me his information but he hung up on me. Today, I was actually able to get him to give me his name and telephone number. This is the number he gave me 800-806-0589. I asked him to take me off his calling list and he mumbles something and hung up. I googled the number and found that it went to the "calls2Geek" web site. It may actually be a legit business but I would not want them to perform "hands free, remote computer support service," on my PC. Besides, I own a  Mac. Proceed at your own risk.
