Phone call scam

Just to let you guys know I just received a phone call (unknown number) saying they were from PayPal and I was about to be charged $210 for computer services and if I had an issue to contact... I just hung up.... I’m always getting some computer related scam phone call. Do not call the number they post. Last month they called saying they were geek squad. I hung up and called geek squad and guess what it’s a scam to get you to call them. I should get their phone number and post it and get everyone prank calling them but they’d use that information somehow. Ever since my hubby fell for their Microsoft scam and they locked us out of our computer for all of an half an hour until I got home and fixed it, they’ve hounded us.... the day they locked us out of our computer my phone rang 200 times. Do not let these people have access to your time or money.

They called me twice within a half hour, two different numbers.  I hung up immediately.

I was called by someone claiming to be from PayPal asking if I was aware of a £300 transaction on my PayPal account. I replied “Ye, that’s fine thank you.”  He replied “I’ll process that payment for you then”  and put the phone down 😆

I recommend subscribing to YouTube channels where you can watch scammers being scammed. Very entertaining and educational. They are doing a great service in messing up their operations.
