They use different kind of tricks to con people. if you really face a problem in your PC you can contact Go4 customer, they are the genuine service providers.

I figured right away it was a scam – even though I am not knowledgeable about tech at all. I kept asking the guy to repeat himself while I did google searches and found your site. I asked him to hold and put the phone down while I type this. I wonder if he is still there? Hmm.

Anyone know where they usually harvest the numbers they target for scams? :P. Put a phonenumber out on various sites visible and hope for the best? :)
