The man called wanted me to go to my computer to help me fill out a form to get my refund. He says his co. is contracted by the BBB to get people their refund. Would not allow me to check his business or anything it had to right then. He said he had already sent the form to my computer and he just wanted to help me fill it out and then he said he had to connect the BBB and us at the same time. He was very forceful on getting me to go to my computer and I hung up. The number he gave me was 805-621-7111 and he said to please help him complete his job. He sounded like the same group that calls saying there from Microsoft Windows. As we all should know HP, Microsoft, and any credible co. does not call you you call them. If it sounds to good it probably is. I hope this will help others since I have checked it out it sure seems to be.

Recorded message that was the ScamPulse.com and that my email had been compromised (which it had and working with new Go-Daddy as new service provider to fix). The recording was otherwise unidentified, and I have never gotten a recorded call like this, particularly recording stating call the ScamPulse.com representative back at phone number: 559-900-3424. Thought you should know.

A guy named Ed Hopkins called and said he was with BBB and wanted to talk to the owner. Apparently he wants us to give our credit card number so we can stay in good standing.

I received a phone call this morning from a man named Micheal from the ScamPulse.com telling me my computer was having problems and he could help me. I kept asking him what company he was from because I didn't realize that the BBB deals with fixing computers or that their employees would call from a cell phone. Figuring it was a scam I told him if I had issues with my computer I would contact the Original Equipment Manufacturer and then said goodbye.
