berk Posted August 22, 2009 ID:113510 Share Posted August 22, 2009 A client of mine (home computer user) called me this morning; Bryan Smith from 1800-698-9034 called to say her computer needed help and he was going o 'fix it'.Concerned she later called me to ask about it. I told her it was likely a scam and I would investigate hence my finding this forum thread.She's not going to bite on the offer, nor reveal any access or information, and in fact ask the called to remove her from his call list,In the end, the folks who granted access might just come away with some cleaned up Registry Entries, (and perhaps no other trouble) but each testimonial sounds like a shill. At least to me.berk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryFCM Posted June 29, 2010 ID:276845 Share Posted June 29, 2010 hehe I know. I'm in touch with a UK reporter, who is looking for the name of the company that appears on the victims bill, so he can move forward (thread may be a year old, but the scam is very much alive, and is getting more and more frequent).

MysteryFCM Posted June 29, 2010 ID:276853 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Cheers I've been continuing to monitor for new company names and websites, and shutting them down where possible (i.e. the most recent one I blogged about, metsupport.com, which I had shut down thanks to a contact at 1 & 1).
