Our opening chat statement itself confirmed that we are not Microsoft. We are OmniTech Support, an independent global Tech Support organization which has been running successfully with pride and passion more than 12+ years. Our technicians are trained and certified to work on Microsoft products in addition to working on other software, networking, setup, registry and virus issues. Because we are a large top-ten support organization, if he did a Google search for a Microsoft-related issue, our information would appear fairly high-up on the page.  

This complaint is totally without merit and we can prove it as we record every word, every keystroke of our interaction with customers.  OmniTech Support has no contractual agreement with Microsoft. We neither claim to be Microsoft nor tell anyone we are. Our company name is very prominent on our website and we greet all customers identifying us as OmniTech Support. We are certified to work on Microsoft products, but that doesn?t make us Microsoft any more than a local car repair shop that fixes Fords is Ford Motor Company.

We handle 100,000 customer contacts per month. Some very tiny percentage is unhappy and complain, that doesn't prove anything other than we are large.

Everyone signs a service agreement which clearly identifies us.

If this person can provide us some more details like his customer ID # (provided when signing up with us), date of contact or email address, then we would be happy to investigate this case further and can say, what was actually, if anything, transpired. However, we can prove that no malware or virus was ever injected to his computer.

We request this person to get back to us so that we can investigate his issue and can sort this matter out, only if this person is a real customer of OmniTech to start with.

We do not call outbound unless we are calling an existing customer regarding their account.

I have received 4 calls from this # regarding omnitect computer support. in contact with omnitect no calls to us were made

Omni Tech somehow foudnmy cell number whihc I did not provide....are these guys scdam artists?

My husband went on the Microsoft website to ask a question. It came up with "support" and of course they said he had all these problems and if he paid them $249.99 they would clean it up. It was OmniTech. He was freaked out-he thought he was talking to Microsoft. He paid them, and watched them remove his antivirus and put something else on. (He removed that & put another on). I tried to find out if this was a scam, went to all the websites like gov. and ftc., but everyone talked about getting phone calls, so I couldn't "prove" it one way or the other. He didn't get a phone call, he was on the Microsoft site. After reading numerous posts about the phone call from "microsoft" and one listed a WHOIS, I decided to check out the domain, so I looked at our credit card bill again to find the name and went on their website and found this number. Just the fact that so many of you have different "companies" with the same 800 number would raise a big flag. I know we are out of the money, but I still would like hard proof about OmniTech and their "services."

I had a problem when Outlook was installed and took over my email acccount.  I tried several different references to correct the problems or to get Outlook removed.  During my inqueries I somehow got connected with OmniTech. At the time I assumed they were working with MSN Support.  They wanted to log into my PC to help clear the Outlook problems.  The download to allow this never did work.  I spoke to a number of different people and each had strong accents some of which I could not understand clearly.  After thinking I had gotten away from them, I noticed that an applet was trying to connect to my pc.  I could not stop  it or get ride of it and when i called OmniTech again I got no where again due to the language problem.  No matter what I tried, each time I brought my PC up that "connecting" window appeared. this went on for several days.  Finally got rid of it just yesterday by running a Norton Scan.  I don't recommend OmniTech to anyone.

I received a call regarding my computer saying that I had reported 'error events' and that they wanted to help me remove the 'infection' from my computer.  When I tried to get a call back number the call would get dropped.  I've received two additional calls and this was the call back number provided.  I tried to confirm via reverse directory and found it is unidentified.  Not letting anyone access my computer without confirmation.

Repeated calls even at 12:08  AM.

Fast talker with fake accent from explore talent. Said my pics were beautiful and at the end of the convo  wanted to know if I'd be using debit/credit for his services as a talent advisor. May be legit but if have bills to catch up on it's best not to set yourself up by calling back. It'll cost you $200. He talked really fast like he was reading and he sounded like the same person, eric, that left the msg but he told me he was his boss. He didnt even mute the phone but pretended to be the receptionist and came back on as jeff anderson. I dont know about it but I def dont have the money to find out.

Ah, I did sign up with them ,  it's a paid service for remote computer assistence for my PC which I found thru the Sony.com/tech support site.  they do leave messages I just never have a chance to call them back. I should, I paid for the service for crying out loud . Thanks everyone. I'll save this number.

They are legit. I've never had a problem with them although they charge too high just to optimize my computer. I never keep anything on mine worth cleaning out.

Oh, sure.  No problem.  Wanna check out my computer for 12 hours from a remote location and an annonymous  "tech"? Ibet they DO clean it....out.  Got the same call.  Not a subscriber.  Message was just garbled enough that the only thing understood was the phone number and "leave your computer on all night".

repeated calls

This # is OmniTech, I enrolled with them about 6 months ago, and they are a computer service subscription service. They remotely log on to my computer and clean it up once a month.  They call me ones a month (and email me) to let me know when they will be remote accessing my computer.

This number is OmniTech, a computer service subscription service.  I purchased a 12 month contract wherein they remotely log on to my computer and clean it up once a month.  They ask you to leave your computer on all night so they can service your computer.  If you get a call like this it mean either that you have subscribed to the service or they have a wrong number for someone who did subscribe.

Call from guy w/British accent saying to leave my computer on all nite!

I got a call from a guy named Janian. Don't know how you spell it. He has an Asian accent. He's asked me to call back 800-966-9940. I did sign for the website but I want to make sure that it is real before I get myself involved onto something I would regret later.

the usual i fell for it However my account was upgraded as discussed but i fear this is because they some how got my log in  information and just checked out. i placed a TIP in the FBI main page. i suggest you all do the same and add a link to this page.

follow this link and fill out the information and state your case!!!

http://www.fbi.gov/contactus.htm

IN THE UPPER LEFT THIRD ITEM DOWN click and submit info or http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx to submit this as an internet scam since they get your information there.

yes they are

I got a  call on audition today for dj's
I never signed up 800 366 9940 from a Eric at Creative talent division of Explore talent are they Legit?

i got a call from rachel she told me i matched up with some audition even i was not sure about website but i got audition i got B cards i am happy

yes i got the same call, he sound like a fake. his accent was breaking up at the end. i could tell he was faking it. fake, fake,fake... the number showed up as (5050) and he asked for me to call him back on 800-966-9940. he claims to be from explore talent. i am not sure if he is legit at all.

This number is a number associated with Explore Talent (www.exploretalent.com). If anybody has ever submitted anything to them, that is why they called.  They called me too, I went with it because I had submitted some inquiries too with explore talent.  It is legit, but those accents are not, I even checked with Explore Talent to see and they verified everything.

Got a call from the same thing.

He claimed to be Jason from Hollywood. Scary thing is that he knew my name.

I don't know how he got my name and number.

His number came up as 443-5562 on my phone - but asked me to call 1 800-966-9940 back.

Someone should call this guy and use a different name - see what happens.

I just called, Its fake!
I could tell by the vioce the guy that answered was the guy that called me. But he was "playing" the receptionist, then put my on hold then was some one else that was talking calls for Kevin. He asked me for my number then put me on hold to look up my profile. Then he came back to the phone and said kevin was in a meetting with some desing people. But me and my husbeand could both tell all three was the same guy. Dont waist your time its all B.S.

I got a call from who I think is the same guy. But the name he gave me was kevin Dosin. Same call back number 5540, He said the name of the company but I cant make it out. My husbands going to call it with me if anything is fishy at at all I'm hanging up. I'll post back with whats going on so you know.
What state are u in?
I'm in alaska.

I have received a voice message from Jeff Anderson from Hollywood,CA. He had an accent. He said something about looking for talent for modeling and acting. Didn't get a good feeling about this, you know the kind of feeling from your gut that something isn't right? I feel when you leave a message, you need to provide not only your name, but the company you're calling from, not just the city and state. Also, when I listed to my message it said the call came from 5540. What does that mean?
