They asked me to install a remote desktop app and go to my bank site "to receive a refund". This is how they steal money.
Same call here. Thanks for posting, I almost picked up.
Said my computer was sending error messages and they needed remote access to fix it. Tech support scam. Microsoft and Apple do not call you.
About area code 720
Area code 720 serves Arvada, CO. Scammers often spoof local area codes so a call looks like it comes from a neighbor. A local number on your caller ID does not prove the caller is local.
