FRAUD Man claiming to be agent of IP

Just received a couple of calls from a man trying to get me to provide him with info about my PC (14 September 2016). When I asked what company he worked for he said - in a very thick Asian accent - 24/7. He told me that my computer had been hacked and he was going to help me fix it over the phone. So dumb because I dont use a PC and there is no legitimnate reason that either my IP or my device vendor would attempt to communicate with me over the phone without first attempting to make contact through my device via email. I told him not to bother me and hung up (4:43 pm). He called right back (4:44 pm). I did not answer. The caller ID displayed each time was 844-445-8570.
