Man who called was Travis Pedro. I said I would call him back and
asked for a phone and after much hesitation got this No. 1-800-231-8572
Orig. phone was shown as not identified. Figured this was a scam. Just a
warning - be on the lookout for these guys. When my husband said we were contaacting Better Business B. they hung up. J.
THEY ARE BACK!

I had a number of phone calls from the above. When I told them I wanted the name and number of the guy at Microsoft that hired them the guy told me to@#$%^&*()(.

It is now 6:20 PM and they are still calling. I won't answer. The numbers they used were (212) 777-3457 and (800) 822 9239. They went from we were told by Microsoft that you are getting errors to someone is trying to hack your computer.

Don't waste your time arguing with these guys it only encourages them more . Tell them to drop dead and hang up
