Just got a call 7:39PM here in central Alberta. No one on line just silence...

Hung up.

I just went OFF on this guy.  Not sure of his supposed company name as his accent was so thick.  However, his scam was to tell me that my windows computer was infected with a bad file and that he'd walk me through fixing it.  He read from a script and told tried to scare me with all sorts of 'bad things' that were happening to my computer.

I asked how he got my name and knew that I had a bad file on my computer.  He said their center had been alerted to it so they were reaching out to me to help fix it.  All I needed to do was log into my computer and do what he told me to do.  Um, I don't think so buddy.  And by the way, I don't use a Windows-based computer.  

He got agitated with me.  And, I got agitated with him.  I gave him a few profanity laced (sorry, hadn't had lunch yet) thoughts about his scam and then I hung up.

I got a phone at 1735 EST, it is a guy with EU accent called me. He can tell our last name "May I speak to Mr. X?" then I was muted then he cut the call. The call display is "Motgage". I guess is some credit union or mortgage provider cold calling. The Canada DNC is like a garbage, I keep receive call for cold calling. I am so disappointed.

Canadian Government should awake from deep sleep.They are not doing much enough in such matters.People  are simply harrased by such telephone calls.In this technological age, it is not hard to find out culprit/s.Only powerful "will"is required from those who are sitting at the helms of affair.( I mean Ministry of Information).

This number called my house @ 2:05 am.  When I answered there was music playing on the other end.  Like it was pocket dialed.  447404860685 shows as the display above the phone number.The night before last I had a Private number call me at 2:04 am.

this number just called me and hung up on the answering machine
