Hi GuysI can't say about TechBuddha but there is one company which offers comprehensive remote computer support physically located in Australia. As i was having some issues recently with my computer which is very painful. The tech guy at SupportOnlineComputer solved it instantly in front of my eyes. Very Beneficial and Real value for buying one year subscription plan.Check out for at www.supportonlinecomputer.com

I received a call from these guys and like you, i thought i would let him have his say. I feel stupid now because i let him get as far as to gain access to my computer- he was able to move my mouse and type etc. He downloaded an anti-virus program and then wanted me to pay $300 for it, which i refused. He said he would send me an applicatrion form to filll out, which i also refused and eventually hung up.
I am wondering now what i should do to pprotect my secrity- and how much access he could have gained?
I changed my bank account passwords, on another computer but do not know if this is enough?
Any information wouyld be helpful- thanks

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.

I got a call from this number. "Mark Goodson" with a heavy Indian accent spoke with me and fed me a load of trash about the company. Instead of snapping on the guy, I was nice to him so I could get as much info as possible from him.  He directed me to techbuddha.com which I will not even visit.  The number he gave was (905) 667-5558. Don't give these guys anything.  I hope the authorities are on this case.  It disturbs me that someone would be stunned enough to provide these people with anything other than a "No" or "leave me the bleep alone!"
Good luck.

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.
