1-888-298-1895

The number is still active today as of 10:21pm EST. Told the tech scammer I got locked out of my computer by another company claiming to be Brother Printers, the guy spent 20 minutes helping me "do a factory reset" then he told me he needed to connect to my teamviewer to make sure "the other hackers" are gone.

during a lull in conversation whilst pretending to restart my computer I told him a knock knock joke to pass the time. He immediately got angry and told me it is against the rules to tell a joke to a technician and he can no longer serve me as a customer, then he hung up lmao.

Found some other very recently created webpages that link to this number.

The reddit link lead me to some similar posts except for Bitdefender and Norton rather than Brother
those posts contained another phone number
