Jason here again. I thought maybe this company was not the responsable ones and it was someone else just using their service. I rang the company to advise them what had happened and the lady was a real t**t. She said well sir if you do not want the tech to remote into your PC you need to get their names and phone numbers. I said does your company tell their names when you call? And she said oh, oh im not sure. You should talk with our techs they are really helpful.So it seems like it is this company. Dodgy as.

Do not give this "company" anything.  I am simply tired of these Indian accent people calling me with bogus names and scam companies.  This needs to stop.

Ya I did the "be nice" thing and tried to get info like, who hired "Tech Budha" to look after my devices on the internet.  Since they try to convince you that "they want to advise you of a widespread "Windows" problem, I also asked if he was also going to call everyone on the planet running Windows LOLThen I looked at their spiffy website, and contact info where nobody answers the phone.This has scam all over it and its sad that some people will believe their computers are generating tens of thousands of errors.   LOL, and if it was, do ya not think Windows would let us know?Now I in no uncertain terms just tell them to F$%& right off.

Yes, definitely a fraud, however I'm afraid "the authorities" can't do much except get the phone number disconnected. Then they will start using a different phone number. These people are committing fraud outside the country and no court in Canada will prosecute them. What is a local police sevice going to do - send officers to Inda to arrest a sweat-shop full of people earning $5 per week and bring them to Canada and prosecute them? Even if the ring-leaders can be identified they will not be prosecuted here or in India (or whatever country, it's not just India). And it's not just one set of fraudsters. There are many of these rings operating.And I agree with the first commenter - there should a a FRAUD section to choose from because 'Telemarketer' just doesn't cut it.

I received three of these calls in the past month. The first two times I could hardly understand what the individual was telling me so I hung up. The second time the line was cut off. In the past two days we have received a number of calls which they hung up when we answered.
I got another call the afternoon and a call that he said would last 5 minutes lasted over 20 minutes and he advised me that it lasted longer because of the numerous questions I was aking.
He showed me all the errors and warnings in my computer telling me that it was infected and should have lost a lot of speed and performance and was omewhat put off when I told him that I had not noticed any problems lately.
He brought me to their website which does look real but when he asked me to go to their support system, that a professional would take over control of my computer, I told him I no longer had the time and was going to call him later. he got very agitated but I now have his name(if it's the right one) his company # and of course the tel. # (905) 667-5558.

Now that I know I will report it to phone busters tomorrow.

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.
