AMMYY Scam

Same thing happened to me tonight.  I was suspicious, so she told me she would give me my Windows I'd number.  I looked it up and she gave me the numbers...I didn't give them to her, so she did have my numbers correct. Then she had me run eventviewer...same story as above.  She told me because I had so many errors, it meant my computer was seriously infected with a trojan virus, to hang on because the problem was so serious, I must speak with the supervisor.  The guy came on and he seemed seriously concerned and wanted me to Run www.ammyy.com in the Command box so they could access my computer and clean it up right away.  I knew better so I played stupid. I told him I wanted to be sure I followed his directions properly and was going to record the conversation.  He hung up.  These people are very convincing.  Question is:  How did they have my Windows id and my unlisted telephone #?

Funny how these twats called me again today

Ha I just got a call from these guys, the moment i heard the Indian accent I was suspicious, but didn't want to impulsively racially profile so I went along with it. Not only did they switch technicians [which further raised suspicion] to someone even more difficult to understand, but they as well tried to get me to run www.ammyy.com. The moment the website came up and they insisted I download their software, I was positive that this was a joke (scam). I told them to hold on, that I wanted to verify their credibility and they tried to direct me to their "certificate". I just ignored them and did some research and found multiple indications of fraud here and from other sources. I read some of the replies and insisted that I wanted to record the conversation from here on. (With no intentions of doing so) To which the "technician" replied "Who told you? Who told you?!?" I laughed at him and said no one told me, I know how to use google and I'm not stupid and then hung up. :]
