Ken - how did you remove the remote access software?

got a call from 5-886-325-8963 tonight ... if was such an odd call I asked questions ... said Creative Solutions from Korea ... the odd thing is keep an eye on what you do on the internet ... hotwire, priceline or hotels.com are notorious in having odd calls after researching, booking or even chatting for info. another thing they may be doing is - keeping people on the phone to tap into the line & if the home line is linked with the internet...watch your remote access on your computers, they may be able to get access to your computers through keeping you on your phone.

My wife took a call from this number today (Nov. 24, 2011) with a similar story about being associated with Microsoft and that there were problems with her computer.  He asked if he could have remote access to her computer and she reluctantly agreed.  I don't know what he did as I was out of the house at the time.  I've since removed the remote access software that he installed on the computer and scanned it and found nothing else that looked suspicious.  Hopefully nothing more will come of this.

This morning I received a call from this same company and they are indeed a scam company.   Wasted several hours figuring this out and reporting them to my credit card company.  What frauds!  The numbers they used to call were as follows:  5-886-325-8963, 92-168-1200  They claimed they have a working website and phone number but I could not find or reach either one.  I e-mailed them this information....so then they called me back again and said they are having technical difficulties.  The number they gave me to call is 786-275-5076.  NO ONE answers!

Recieved a call the same as above. I was determined he give me his name which was max smith he said he was from a company called "creative solutions online.net" he's aid he noticed a great deal of error codes and wanted to offer me a chance to talk to his technician to get an opportunity to resolve the problem.  At this point I said thanks for the help and you made my decision easy to buy a new computer and hung up. I also told he to take me off his list.
