Just had yet another call from 'Windows Service Station' saying I have been hacked and my computer is sending warning messages to windows and if I didn't follow his instructions all my data would be erased...An Indian sounding guy called Sam...I played

along and got a phone number saying I would call him back he said 0808 1890111 which is a UK drug addiction help line...

As I played along 'Sam' gave me an extremely long code to type in, something about windows event viewer... I know this is a scam and we have these calls often 3 times a week for some years now. I play along or am quite rude and tell them to be ashamed of

themselves, depending on my mood...I really wish they would go away but I cannot block this 'no number' because it is off shore.

Any suggestions of how to remove our number and name from their list (I have asked the scammers to do so but they take no notice).
