3 phone calls back to back. They literally hung up before VM would answer and call right back. I didn't know the number so I was skeptical in answering. By the 4th time I decided to answer thinking maybe it was someone I knew in an emergency using an alternate phone. No one responded when I answered after saying hello several times, so I hung up. 5th time same thing. Finally, by the 6th time an Indian sounding man said "Hi I'm so and so, calling from Windows and there's an emergency. Your computer is compromised and a hacker has access to it and we need to help you by going to a secure website." YEAH RIGHT. I've heard of the Windows scam and this isn't the first time I've received a call from them (just a different number). I told him my computer is safe, I have protection on it and I am not going to alternate website to allow them to hack my computer. He got mad. I told him this is the 6th call in less than 10 minutes, please stop calling." And I hung up. Then phone calls 7, 8 and 9 came in. I answered again on 9th stating it was harassment and they needed to stop and leave me alone before I report them to the police. Before I could hang up a different man this time said he would have everyone there call me. He wasn't lying. Call 10 and 11 came in and by call 12 I answered again to tell them to stop the harassment, only this time he asked why I'm being a b*tch and if I am a lesbian or have sexual issues. This time I was fed up, and to be honest a little frightened. Before I called the cops as I am unsure of how these kind of calls can be handled by the police, I called my cell phone carrier to see if I could block the number from calling me again. While I tried dialing in, they called 2 more times interrupting my connect to tmobile. Finally I get through and while on the phone with support in attempts to block this call, I got 3 more calls until finally, they were blocked and the calls stopped! 17 calls in less than 20 minutes! 17!!!!! DO NOT answer your phone for them, and if by chance you do ....just act like you don't speak English or something to avoid the harassment they just gave me!!

I hope this will help others not go through what I just did.
