I'm new to these blogging forum thingys. I usually come to bleeping for articles on software. this topic I found both very interesting and funny.
1st - person that did the company lookup - very cool! not sure why that company put up the challenge.
2nd - everyone seems familiar with those companies mentioned - am I missing something? Guess i'm not in that click huh?
3rd - and most funny - the person who requested the company address because it's nearby - correct me if i'm wrong but isn't West Tennessee a freaking long journey to florida some 8 - 9 hours. I'm surprised no one picked up on that and the bahzillion posts. Is there a job opening to post here or something?
ok final point - isn't there software available to prevent those silly pop-up and now talking pop-ups?
ok for reals this is my last point - doesn't bleeping computer use similar pop-up ads? Why didn't anyone mention it?
Well anyway, thanks for the 2 minutes of entertainment it was fun

Now that IS a scam 
. I dunno but nowadays scams are becoming worse!!! There are whole articles, blogs, websites, etc JUST to get you on a scam. Luckily for this one, my speaker has gone on strike for some unknown reason so I can't hear it. But I still see those "Your Kampfuter is infected click here to get a whole lot of bleepware" ads but I just ignore 'em. Even the ones that pop up when you try to leave the website safe. bleep

I Got a call from someone as well although I don't believe the names you are mentioning here were the same. The so called "Tech" that called me said that he worked for a company that provided tech assitance on Windows computers. When I responded that he had to be working for Microsoft. He got flustered but, was adamant that my computer had a bad virus on it. When I asked him which computer had the virus and just exactly what kind of virus it was & how he came to know about it before I did.......he quickly handed the phone to his "supervisor,' When I asked the "supervisor" the same questions he also claimed that they were working for WINDOWS. I told him You can't work for "Windows, it's an operating system and I told him that they ought to be taken out an beaten and then sent to prison for a few years and he hung up on me.
They sounded Indian to me, (East Indian).
My 80 year old parents wouldn't have know any better.
These people are evil and they need to be stopped

gigahurtz thats a great handle
TWO THINGS
I actually had one of these companys get into a brand new computer i was setting up for friend, only reason i called was i thought it was free, (i know, jimbotoo when are you gonna learn you can't think) anyway they wanted 150 bucks to show me how to change a screen setting. which i did on my own 3 mins later.
the real issue is not computer scams, the issue is the unpresidented number of people who are willing to do this stuff compared to 30 years ago.
DON'T CALL A 800 NUMBER AND CUSS EM
in the usa, even if you dial *67 then the 800 number to hide your number , they can ID you and harass you later, you have to fiqure, if some sociopath is willing to scam you as a none personal event, what might they do when it gets personal.
The real goal is to out wit these freaks, if i get away safe,,,,if you get away safe--we have Won, mean while I can tell you, folks who do this stuff never have a life, some are so numb, its a mirical they can even tell one color from another, most use drugs to feel, have rotten personal lives, they are already in that famious place 
you want to send them before even you call.

Now that IS a scam
Hello abj
congrats brother you have a hi EQ ---emotional quota, your welcome to dinner at my house any time.
hi functioning brains are useless, but having heart is priceless, you have a heart that has notticed something, listen to it.
I remenber when i got the first cable connection in the wash DC area, like suddenly porn is ok cause i ordered a huge package. all i could think was was what happen to these women, who normally have such life sustaining boundries, well the fact is, ten years after any porn star is in a movie, she commits suicide 50 percent of the time, believe me, it's a empathy failure in the child raising domistic sphere, FACT PROVEN AD INFINTUM a child that does not get daily massives doses of Oxytocin off a womans body grows a freaked out brain, not capable of empathy, folks can politic the the importance of a child coming home every day to a mother thrown left and right, but the fact remains, you mri a kid brain raised by a TV and Computer and you will see super bizarre strange stuff, the upper mamilian high reasoning part of the brain is dead, no neuro synapsis between the empathy centers, that actually cause a person to feel pain when they see another person hurt, Its actions are mediated by specific, high-affinity oxytocin receptors that in any IQ create concern for others and their welfare, this prosess makes us suffer when we see other folks suffer.
in short, perfect way to end all violence, create a human who hurts at seeing others hurt.
but the motherless child grows the limbic fight or flight center as if it is on fire, a psychiatrist at harvard has called for all politicians to show a normal mri before running for office.
whats interesting is the limbic center is also called the Serpent Brain by phd's around the world
just fun facts, but a poet put it best,
you can grow people upwards or grow them down wards, but what ever way you grow them, your kids are gonna marry one.

I get this a lot and I don't usually care about it as it is not doing much to affect my computer. I use Google Chrome and usually, there is a pop-up. If you click 'OK', if pops up again, this time with a box you can check to get rid of the box for good. The voice and text will still be on the page but all you've got to do is close the tab.
