Expert Opinion
Block the number right away to prevent further interruptions. These calls are classic tech‑support scams: the caller claims a virus or error on your computer, uses a heavy accent, and tries to get remote access or payment info. Never grant access to anyone who calls unsolicited, and don’t share personal data. Hang up as soon as the script starts, then report the number to the FTC and your phone carrier. Consider adding the caller to your Do‑Not‑Call list and using a call‑blocking app. Stay skeptical of any “IT department” offering free fixes, especially if they pressure you to act fast.

I dont need to buy a phone block for my Panasonic corded or cordless phone from HSN.COM, it was a pointless purchace.
Occured to me that I recieved a call from this numbe a few minits ago, luckly I had call block installd! It's highy recomendded to get call block, especialy since you can get a phone that blocks up to 30-50 numbers, including those with no name or out of area, at HSN.COM, they have a Panasonic brand, and you only need to pay a monthly fee to your phone providor if you want to. I'm also getting alot of these phony calls from India, and to be honest, I dont mind when they get a earthquke!!!
