Unsolicited calls
Wow! I just received a call from someone posing as a Microsoft consultant and ask me to to go my computer to enter a code and when I told them that I did not want to do so and hung up. He called several times and started cursing me. He called from the following numbers: 800-642-7676 and 585-296-1580

- Hi Cynthia, remote support connections are single use, so they would not be able to reconnect to your computer unless you went to the website and entered a new session ID that they provided you.
- I had the same thing happen on August 19 and didn't write down the nine digit code either. I am concerned about what this scammer can still do now after allowing him to view my computer with the GoToAssist site.
- I did not write it down. I started to type it on the box and deleted it once I realized that how he was rushing me to do so. Then he called me back five times and started cursing me, so I blocked him.
- Hi Harmel,
Did they ask you to go to our fastsupport.com website and enter in a 9 digit support session key? If so, do you still have that 9 digit code? We can use that to terminate their account with us.
