    CLSID Phone Scam?


    I got a call today and believe the individual was trying to hack/scam my government/company/personal computer (don’t know which one). He (sounded form middle east, India maybe).

    You all have way more knowledge and contacts of/to determine what he was trying to do. Here is the data and what he wanted:


    Called from +152-139-0271 and +052-139-0271. Verified scammer numbers.


    Presume he wanted me to type at command prompt (of course didn’t):

    888DCA60’FC0A’11CF11CF’8F0F’00C04FD7D062


    Reason I suspect “command prompt” is he requested I “run” cmd.


    Does anyone know what this prompt code would do?


    Thought it might be a ransomware or some other type of virus. More of a reporting than worried.

    :)

    Phone scam


    I now get no more weird foreign voices claiming to be from Microsoft's technical dept and many other such scams. We have been inundated with rubbish calls- before I added a call blocker device this reached 6 or 7 a day.

    In the UK service providers have added a new free service that means callers are challenged to leave a short message, then press #. My phone then rings, and I have the option to add the caller to my approved list, accept this call but not add it, or simply not take the call.

    I can manually add numbers to the blocked or approved list on line or using my phone.

    The downside is any valid service (library reservations, some bank services) that rely on automated calls fail.

    I have asked my service provider to consider adding a way to temporarily suspend the service.
