Phone number ☎️ 8883458767 👆 is reported as a persistent scam originating from callers impersonating technical support, often with Indian accents, claiming your computer is sending error or virus alerts. They urge you to grant remote access or pay fees, sometimes requesting credit or bank details. Multiple reports detail identity theft, unauthorised charges, and the installation of malicious software. The company names used, such as Papa Direct or Online Computer Support, are fraudulent, and legitimate firms like Microsoft do not make unsolicited calls.

Users are strongly advised not to share personal information, avoid remote access, and independently verify any claims, seeking official support channels instead. Staying vigilant and cautious can prevent serious security and financial consequences.

9 yearsIn this line of work, there are beggars who go to great lengths to plea for money. Among them, Imran Kurwale is renowned as the Alexander of beggars, while Manish Damania is considered the Prince Charles of this group. Together, they instruct young beggars to perform "The Begging Song."Imran KurwaleAlexanderManish DamaniaPrince Charles9 yearsI received multiple calls from the phone number "888-345-8767" informing me about possible hacking attempts on my computer. Unfortunately, I previously fell for their tricks when they called me earlier. They claimed that I needed to pay around $300.00 for a year's worth of service and I hesitated to provide my credit card details. However, they then asked for my checking account number, and regrettably, I gave it to them. Since then, I have received numerous calls asserting that I had paid them to monitor my computer, stating that they were simply doing their job. Fortunately, I closely monitored my accounts and no unauthorized transactions were detected. When they mentioned the payment, I refrained from challenging them. Recently, I have blocked their number in hopes of preventing any further calls.9 yearsPlease be warned that this is a deceitful scheme!! Refrain from providing any personal information or granting remote access to your computer to these individuals!!9 yearsI received a call from someone named James Walton with an Indian accent. He claimed that my computer was receiving harmful files. I promptly informed him that my computer was not even turned on at the time. However, he persistently insisted that I should grant him access to my computer. This sort of call is a recurring occurrence every few months for me. I had actually contacted Microsoft some time ago and learned that they do not make unsolicited calls to customers. It is definitely a scam, so please watch out and be cautious!James WaltonMicrosoft9 yearsOn the 4th of October 2017, I received a call from a representative called Khris, who kindly spelled out his name for me. Despite having an Indian accent, he was extremely polite. Khris informed me that my computer was at risk of crashing, with only a few percentage points to spare. He also mentioned experiencing similar error messages as others had in previous comments. He requested me to turn on my computer so that he could perform a complimentary diagnostic test. Since I was not at home at the time, I asked for his number so that I could call him back later. He provided me with the number 888-345-8767. Interestingly, when I received the call, it appeared on my phone as Ronald Corbett from 785-523-4397.KhrisRonald Corbett9 yearsI've been attempting to cancel my subscription with Papa Direct, but they keep insisting that I need to upgrade my internet. Frankly, I find their incompetence amusing. Initially, they claimed that the billing department was occupied and later asked me to wait while they checked with them.Papa Direct10 yearsI received a message from a person called Charles Cruz, who claimed to be a senior technician. He informed me that my computer had multiple viruses and offered to clean it up, promising that it would be good as new afterwards. However, there was a catch: their services were not free. To proceed with the cleaning, they demanded a payment of $249.99 through Visa, Mastercard, Discover card, or a checking account. If you denied having any of these payment options, they would suggest going to the nearest Walmart to purchase a prepaid card with the same amount and calling them back with the details. It is disheartening that some individuals engage in scamming innocent people instead of pursuing more meaningful activities.Charles CruzWalmart10 yearsDespite my repeated attempts to inform them that they are running a scam, this company continues to call me, insisting that they are legitimate. Their phone number appears as 913-429-3593 on my caller ID. Every time I hang up on their calls, I try to call them back immediately, only to be told that the number is experiencing technical difficulties. This situation occurs consistently whenever I attempt to inform them to stop contacting me.10 yearsI have just turned off my computer without pressing the button to retrieve the computer remote. What should be my course of action?10 yearsThis is a scam number. They have charged me once again. I won't be falling for it anymore.10 yearsToday, I received a phone call from a persistently insistent gentleman who seemed to believe that I was an imbecile. Quite frustratingly, he steadfastly refused to provide any details about his supposedly "genuine" company. Although he was aware of my name and home telephone number, he could not offer any additional credible information. It was evidently a fraudulent scheme, prompting me to promptly disconnect the call.10 yearsA man called me with an East Asian accent, claiming that he wanted to help me with my computer as it was apparently sending error messages. After doing some research on the number, I politely declined his offer and informed him that I was not interested. However, he strongly insisted that my computer was infected and assured me that he was not a hacker. In response, I assured him that I would contact Dell for assistance in resolving any issues.Dell10 yearsI mentioned that I might acquire a virus on my computer.Submit Your Own Report (0888 345 8767)
