    Email 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.

    :)
