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.

I have had dealings with these thieves in the past. They rang my house in Wellington New Zealand and got me when I was sick. I was scammed!!Yesterday though, 5 April 2012, they rang my parents where I happened to be visiting. (Foxton New Zealand). My Mum didn't know about them but I did so spoke to them.They reckoned they had an office in Wellington NZ. I told him to go back to India on the 1st plane and not to ring back again. They are total scammers and I have reported them to the police but dont know what they would actually do about it.There are too many of these sort of people around unfortunately. UNLESS IT IS YOUR OWN INTERNET PROVIDER, EG. TELECOM, COMPASS, SLINGSHOT ETC. IN OTHER WORDS = THE ONE YOU PAY EVERY MONTH...... DO NOT LET THEM INTO YOUR COMPUTER.....SCAMMERS!!!!

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!!!

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.

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.
