[quote=Anonymous]I got the same call just now.  My caller ID shows "NAME NOT FOUND" and a phone number of "1352-1001022" which has too many digits it seems.

The guy insisted that it wasn't a sales call when I told him that my number is on the Do Not Call Registry.  As others have mentioned, he had a HEAVY Indian/Pakistani'ish accent  (I had to ask him to tell me what company he was calling from multiple times because I found it nearly unintelligible).

It sounded like he was calling to help me with my supposed Windows problems.  FWIW, I use Linux and only have Windows on my photo/graphics workstation which doesn't have any problems.

When I told him that I was fairly certain that this was a scam given that I don't have any type of subscription or maintenance service with his company, nor have I even heard of it, he became incredibly hostile and defensive.  "HOW CAN YOU SAY THIS IS A SCAM IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT I AM CALLING TO SAY TO YOU?!!!!!"

I told him that his rapid shift towards being hostile and argumentative merely confirmed my suspicions and to have a nice day.

Then I hung up.[/quote]
