I received a call from these guys a month ago.  My wife just received one tonight. They don't take no for an answer.  My wife strung them along for about 15 minutes.  Kept him from calling anyone else for a little while anyways.  These guys really come prepared, phone numbers and website. They advertise on youtube.  Make it look really official. I like the air horn idea.  Might have to bring one back from work. Haha!

Frauds - Want to access my computer remotely and install virus to hack details i.e. bank etc.

Dont give them access to the computer at all.

They called me last night and said they looked in my computer and that it was infected. I replied "amazing, and what operating system was my system running when you looked in it?"He replied. "Windows and it is infected. We looked in it."I replied "so my Mac is running windows? Didn't do a very good job looking around did you?"Then I hung up.

A scam company that currently goes by the name techbuddha.  Go see their legitimate looking website at www.techbuddha.com.  They also have bogus facebook, twitter and linked-in accounts.  They called me from Canada but have scammers is a couple of other countries including the US and UK.They get you to a website that you download an executable that you execute and let them remotely control your computer.  They then copy 'scanner' software to your desktop where they execute it.  The software reports many problems that they then encourage you to 'fix' buy paying them a one time only 179.99.  (Don't worry, it's not expensive.  You can install their 'fix' software on all of your computers!)I wish I could choose 'commit fraud' from the call type for this number.

Like you I received a call from them as well, when he calls back I am going to tell him I am ready to go and in front of my computer. I will then let him know there is a tracer on with me. Them comes the grand finaly!!! I pull out the AIR HORN!!!

After a lot of research I found the following details:Tech Buddha Pty Ltd. CEO : Michael Riek (US National)Operates from Indian call center Diversified Technologies India Pvt Ltd. Michael and his staff are a bunch of scammers. BEWARE!!!
