This person called me stating I have issues on my PC when I don't even own one! He then tried back tracking and saying he meant a laptop and how I was using his companies laptop. When I said to him I don't even know who he is nor has he given me a name or even a name of a company, the man on the phone tried threatening me about calling the police! In the end I hung up but he called a few times after and I didn't bother answering.
Repeatedly getting phone calls from this number. I originally answered the call but there was no one there so now I just avoid. As this is a geographic number people may be more likely to answer it. SPAM CALLER - AVOID AND IGNORE!!
Scam caller from 'PC support' saying 'my corrupt files were slowing the server'. When I told him I don't have a have a home computer he hung up.
