Hello Belinda,

Did the caller have an Indian accent? The scam seems to originate from India.

I got one from the "Anti Hacking Department" tonight. As soon as I heard that I hung up.

I got a call from them last night. Apparently, they are aggressively targeting the U.S. and the U.K.

YouTube has a lot of videos of people who were aware of the scam and played along just to frustrate the scammer. Very funny.
