210-249-XXXX

Scammer! Beware!

Spamming for access to personal computers.... I managed to get off a few choice words before blocking number..... Love my Call Blocker.

They never say anything when they call just **** on the phone ...Total spam!

Back at it a***n! Novatel...

I wonder if they have a woman, or women, working for them also. I received a call from a very thickly speaking Indian woman telling me I have a problem with my computer this morning, funny that seeing as she fetched me off it and nothing wrong. I couldn't understand anything else she was rabbiting on about so told her to ring later when my husband home. I rang 1471 but number withheld which seems unusual. Anyway tonight I had a call from +1210-249-0540 which seems a bit of a coincidence, this call I ignored as it came up on my mobile screen what do you think ?

"Card Services"??? Lower may credit card rate. They ***g up on me when i asked to be removed from their call list.

SCAMMER - do not answer - block caller if you can. Caller: 210-249-0540 = Novatel Scammer Call Type: Telemarketer

Yes, number keeps calling me. Call center sound when I answer.

Spam and scam, blocked the number

Scammer *****.

I received a call from “Peter at Windows Technical Support”, caller ID said: Novatel with a phone number of: 210-249-0540. He had a very thick Indian accent. He informed me that my computer was sending event logs to Microsoft and that my computer was infected with viruses and malware. I have all logs turned off. He explained how he could get someone to help me (so generous of him, considering he’s a complete stranger). He walked me through how to pull up the Event Viewer and see all the “Errors” and “Warnings”. He was telling me to hit Control, Windows and "R". I pretended nothing happened and he walked me through how to do it by going into Windows and sear****g. Told me that he could have someone help get my computer clean. He had me filter the current logs by "Critical", "Warning" and "Error" which showed some errors. One of the warnings had a high number and I was informed that my computer was very infected. He was under the impression that I was falling for this scam so he transferred me to another gentleman (Rick) who instructed me to download Team Viewer (teamviewer.com - is a legit company, but you should not ever download so****ing like this unless you are sure of the purpose of the person using it. It allows them complete control of your computer, so unless it’s a known IT Person, etc DO NOT DO THIS!) and then give him the ID number and password. Said that he generated that ID from Microsoft (complete lie!). When I was hesitant to give him the numbers he suggested another website (ammyy.com - a***n, appears to be legit, but DON’T do this!) I told him I was leery about doing this one as well he asked if he could call me back after I checked out the 2 websites. I told him I’d rather call him. He did give me a phone number of: 347-281-7937 but that anyone could help me. For w***ver gets a call from these people: DO NOT download anything or give them any type of personal or sensitive information! If you have a concern about any “Errors” or “Warnings” please contact Microsoft directly.

This number just called my cell phone. Rang once and then ***g up. Heard on the news that the BBB have had reports of scammers doing this so you call the number back. Once you call the number back they try to keep you on the phone for as long as they can cause you will be charged anywhere from $49-$200+ for that return phone call. You are unable to dispute the call because you called the number in question.

Have received numerous calls. They "say" they are from the "Windows Tech. Dept" and want me to get on to my computer and follow their instructions because they are receiving deceptive "signals" from my computer and they want to clear it up. Right. Like I am falling for that!!!!
