866-542-9565 still active.
Update: here’s a statement from an apparent scam victim that seems to tie a few of their aliases/fronts together:
Hello, I am wondering if anyone ever called Cricut customer service for technical help and then get handed over to a company called Tech Wire? This happened to me, and I believe the company is a scam. They require access to your computer and call you often to gain access for “updates”. I finally told them NO and they now call me twice a day telling me they monitor my computer and I have a virus they need to remove. It all seems fishy to me. I would have never trusted them, but I trusted Cricut.
Yes me too called themselves zone firewall said they had to access my computer so I could install cricut kept calling to say I had a virus saying I must of bought a second hand computer no it was brand new just like the cricut all from Amazon
And here’s another recent spam slop blog post that advertises the various e-GSS properties together: Top Cricut Issues Support Providers for 2025
Let me emphasize once again that what I am documenting here is not intended to be an accusation of wrongdoing and should not be acted upon as such.
Here’s another odd website on the same IP address:
Washington State UBI number 605497923.
What makes it odd? Let me count the ways:
- Weird name (“01”)
- “Designed by Zone Websites”
- Mistyped address (extraneous space); the address in Yakima, WA is a modest, nondescript doublewide trailer home.
- The “photos” of the supposed real estate listings are all Adobe stock photos!
- Use of “enquire” where American English would use “inquire,” a very British spelling choice.
What is going on here? I have no idea but it may or may not be related to this scam organization.
