The very first thing you should do, if it ever happens again, is to disbelieve what the hackers are telling you. Meaning: SHUT IT DOWN immediately. Do not make note of the number they want you to call, do not call the number. Do not do anything they want you to do. Since you said it continued to blare after you shut it down, then power all of your computer equipment down. Some of the hackers are getting sophisticated, they are con men. If you feel guilty doing the exact opposite of what they instruct, then feel free to blame me.
Good luck battling them.
