Got unwanted call from 818-254-1070?
Keeps calling my home from 818-254-1070 with a call back number of 360-203-0997. Answering machine message is generic and not information on who they are.
Calling several times a day to private number
I received a call from 818-254-1070 the caller ID said Apple Inc. I picked up thinking it was from Apple and a computer generated voice informed me that my iCloud has been compromised then provided me with a security incident number. Then I pressed an option to be connected to an Apple associate. The man was from a foreign country, asking me if I knew of anyone in Egypt because many attempts from Egypt are comprising my iCloud account. However, he could not provide me with an incident or proof. Then I asked him for an email from him since he worked at Apple, he could not provide that. He insisted that I get onto one of my computers to show me that my system has been compromised. (noticed how the story changed? it went from my iCloud has been compromised to now looking at my computer settings). He went on to ask if my file vault and fire wall were turned on and I said yes this stunned him. Then diverted wanting to look at my CPU processes and tried to tell that the red dots under my CPU processing shows that damage has been done by the Egypt hackers. I told him, "no it is not, the red dot represent the system processes and the green dots represent the available memory available for applications. He hung up immediately....He didn't know that I am systems architect/ systems engineer. To all you out there, hang up these scammers, crooks and fraudulent criminals
