Yes! It's a scam and with various names and phone numbers, a
that becomes very common lately. See

In addition to their money get on your part to do anything of any value,
If you leave them in your computer, which knows what losses they did are
where confidential information they stole.

So if you have done so, I highly recommend that you do both of the following
immediately:

1 do a clean reinstall of Windows.
2. change all of your passwords, especially banks or other
financial sites.
