On the 17 the of September a window with a Microsoft warning about a spyware attack appeared on my notebook stating that my PC had been hacked by the Trojan Horse, and informing me in it and in the loud voice message not to shut down my PC but to call this number -18338101867. I did call and a man with an Indian accent stated that somebody was trying to teal my identity and that he he would help me. He explained the situation and started navigating me telling to type certain names/codes in my PC to get into it to see what happened. He showed to me on my PC a list with several attempts to steal my identity in US and abroad, including two thefts for $1960 and $220 done from China and Russia. He asked me to check my bank account to verify such thefts but I refused to do it. Then he transferred me to another man ( who called me later from this number 18889182238, to get out of my PC because he forgot to do it earlier) , who also had an Indian accent, and who also started checking my PC, and said later that everything was fine. The conversation lasted over 1 hour. They both while navigating me through the whole process when I was taking their instructions to type in certain codes in my PC (including ...viewer), and even to open a Google voice account as they told me to do so, and twice told me to click on the phone number in the list of phone numbers to pick each time their numbers using area codes 202 or 203.

Now I believe that I was talking to criminals who wanted to steal my money and identity.

Please, review this information and try to find these crooks to avoid future thefts.
