We received a call from someone who didnt speak English, was obviously reading from a script, and the originating number didnt show up at all on caller ID nor was it listed in recent calls on the phone (which means theyve figured out how to hide that data). THe caller said something like he was calling from the Microsoft Windows Support Center (warning flag 2,because Microsoft doesnt care enough about end users to actually call them). I could only understand fragments of what he was saying. Malware, errors, concerned, etc.  I asked him to repeat his name and provide his MS employee ID number, and  told him I was going to call a friend who worked at Microsoft to confirm his employment. SURPRISE!  He hung up.  I really would like to identify the originating number so I can report it.  Without a doubt it's a scammer.
It's a scammer using a system (probably international via the Internet) that spoofs (hides) all caller ID information, which is why there was no Caller ID information or entry in the call log.  It's illegal so reporting them even if you could woukd have no effect.  If I don't get valid caller ID information from a number I recognize I just ignore the call or quickly answer and immediately hang up.

  • My number has been showing up as calling people while in my possession and sometimes off.  How does this happen?  How do I stop it?

    I've tried to contact facebook support and been trying to get on live chat for hours to no avail.  Please help me stop annoying people.

    A month ago I received a spoofed call at 6A - obviously I was not happy. Came from 000-0000000 as I recall.
    Tonight I had two irate people call me minutes apart saying I called them - I was eating dinner with my wife with my phone turned off in our eye-sight.
    I cannot believe that we allow spoofing software and spoof cards these days, with only a crime if someone asks for money or does some similar fraudulent activity.

  • I paid for Quicktime Pro but only show Quicktime. I need to rotate a movie.

    I have registered successfully with the license code they sent me after I paid for Quicktime Pro. The email from them says that I now have Quicktime Pro, but still I only show regular Quicktime, not Quicktime Pro.
    I DO HAVE A NEW DELL LAPTOP SO THIS MAY BE OPERATOR ERROR.
    I'd like to be able to rotate a movie but the directions I have don't work for regular Quicktime.
    I found directions online that tell me to open Quicktime Pro. Go to "Window". Then to "Show Movie Properties" then to the icons for rotating a movie.
    I can get as far as "Show Movie Properties" but after that there is a strange chart and nothing about rotating anything.
    How do I get the Quicktime Pro to show up instead of regular Quicktime?
    Thanks in advance for any help you may give to me.

    Thank you for responding! Unfortunately, it doesn't give me this option. When I go to "Windows" and then to "Show Movie Properties" and I click on the video, nothing happened other than it is highlighted in blue. I tried clicking once. Nada. Twice Nada. I tried right clicking. Nothing comes up. The options I have are below. Is this making any sense to you? Thanks.

    Shouldn't my program say Quicktime Pro?

  • Online number is not showing up in caller id

    I live in the U.S. and my online number is not showing up when I call someone.  Is there a way to fix this

    I am constantly having problems with clients not seeing my phone number when I call. Why is this happening? Your answer here was very short and not very specific as to how to resolve this. I have been fighting this for more than 2 months now but I keep paying for a number that people can't see when I call them.
    I'm sorry I did not give an answer that met your level of specificity.  The original poster did not post the number he/she was trying to call.  This is also a worldwide forum mostly inhabited by Skype users along with some Skype employees who post from time to time.  I'm not a Skype employee, just a user who makes use of many features of Skype to avoid paying more $$$ to the telephone companies. 
    When Skype users have Online Numbers, these numbers are not automatically used as Caller ID when calling telephones from a Skype account.  This way, the Skype users hold the control over whether or not to have a working phone number show up as Caller ID. Most who have Online Numbers want them used as Caller ID, but the users - and not Skype - get that level of control.  In my opinion, that's a good thing.
    The surest way to see the current Caller ID settings for your Skype account and change them is to log into your account on the Skype web site (use the "account" link on the upper-right corner of the Skype web site).  When you log in, you will see the current settings, and the link to make changes.  If you have Online Numbers that can be used for Caller ID, you can select them.  Online Numbers in the USA and the UK are examples of the numbers that can be used as Caller ID from Skype, and numbers from Mexico and Australia can't be used as Caller ID.  You also have options to use different numbers as Caller ID for calls to telephones in those countries, and have a "default" number used for Caller ID anywhere else.  In my case, my default number for Caller ID is my US Online Number, and my UK Online Number is used as Caller ID for calls to the UK. 
    Even with these settings properly configured, there are still occasions where your number (an Online Number, or a mobile number which has gone through the verification process with two SMS messages) will not appear on the Caller ID displays of the phones you call.  This is generally outside the control of Skype.  If you are using a number that is not a "local" number in the country that you are calling, it too may not show up on the Caller ID display.  Instead of posting on the community forums, using the Support link at the top of this page may be the better way to go.  You can go through the knowledge base trying to find a solution, and end up opening a support ticket with Skype.  If you have a subscription, you may be able to go to a live chat with Skype support.

  • The image for my new podcast doesnt show up in iTunes

    I started a new podcast called Silph Radio A Pokemon Podcast.  Everything else worked fine, but the image is not showing up for the podcast.  When I first attempted to submit my podcast, I was told my image had to be at least 600x600 pixels and it wasn't big enough, so I fixed the problem and resubmitted.  This time it worked.  My podcast was approved and appears in the store, but the image is absent.  What do I need to do to make my podcasts image appear?

  • Export Release Build for datagrid [xml file doesnt show?]

    SRC folder
              assets
                        icons
              db.xml (located within assets folder)
    datagrid.mxml
    default.css
    I am able to load the database and it populates my "db.xml" with no issues, however when I export release build and run the app - the database displays but with no information?  I noticed that the my "db.xml" was not exported as well.
    It is set up correctly? or do I need to just drop my icons, db.xml within src folder and not seperate them?
    thanks

    When you export a release build, it takes all your MXML And ActionSCript files and turns them into a SWF without the extra debugging code.  If you are not embedding the XML in the swf, then this is expected behavior.
    In your project properties, under Flex Compiler you can try checking the "copy non-embedded files to output folder"; but I believe this is only for debugging purposes and not for exporting a release build.

  • RFC doesnt show up in reimport model

    Hi,
    We have created a ZRFC and when reimport and add that to the  model . after i give the login credentials for the ECC and search for the RFC it doesnt show up in the search. But it still exists in the system. Do I have to do anything like exposing it as service to show up in the list.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks,
    James

    Hi,
    Yes, RFC should be remote enabled. Also, make sure that your server credentials are pointing to server , where RFC exists and not any other server.

  • IdmManager doesnt show up in activesync view

    Hello,
    I am trying to activesync users from a database activesync and i have a idmManager mapped to some columns in database table in resource schema. For some reason, idmManager doesnt show up in activeSync or global view during activesync. If i change the name from idmManager to something else, it shows up in the view. anyone know a workaround for this? or know why this is happening
    thx

    Have you ran this through the debugger to see which variables are available to you and what their values are?
    The BPE has a built-in debugger, or I think the newer 7.x releases have a NetBeans plug in for both the BPE replacement and debugger.

    At the present time, audiobooks are a one-time download and cannot be redownloaded again for free.  You can try contacting the iTunes store to see if they would grant you an exception: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.
