New scammer approach ?

Got phone call today for new -at least to me- scammer approach, with heavy east Asian accent:

"This is the Computer Refund Department. We determined that we over-charged you for the recent computer service we provided. Give me your full name and credit card number and we will..."

......go on a shopping spree with my account!

Don't fall for these scams! :emotion-5:

Sounds like they cut right to the chase, instead of fooling around and wasting time with all the subtlely! :emotion-40:

Guess they think offering money is a better enticement, especially since I've never let any of these scammers "fix" my PC. So any money they'd give me would be "free".

Except there ain't no free lunch or free money...

Terrible. I can see persons falling for this if they bought  new computer.
