She called to tell me that my computer has been hacked and that she will help walk me through how to fix it. I asked her "are people really dumb enough to fall for your scam?" "She said not most people, but I think you are dumb enough to fall for it".
I said "oh really? That's so funny of you to tell me this because I'm married to an IT guy and there is nobody that can hack into my computer system".

** We actually had a friend of ours who is a computer genius try to hack our system one time and he couldn't do it LOL **

Please warn everyone you know that Microsoft WILL NOT be calling you regarding a virus on your computer!!!

As a tech who has to fix the damage done by these people, I can most assuredly tell you they are out for your personal info. Most sound very genuine when they call. Windows based computers often generate errors that you never see because Windows takes care of them without your help. There is a log of these errors and the callers "show" you these errors "proving" they are there to help. NEVER allow them to take control of your computer.

As to Microsoft, they have literally billions of computers with one of their operating systems. There is no way they could or would single you out, find your phone number and then call you. They have their money and have no need to call you. Hang up on these thieves and block their number from your phone. Warn people around you that this scam is going on and to do the same thing, hang up and block the number.

he proceeded to tell me i had a windows error and that my computer had a problem that he needed to fix via remote viewing so at this point i began to ask questions and he said i had the frozen virus bug. typed it into Google and found nothing about it. guy transferred me to his supervisor then after making fun of his accent and questioning his qualification for technician he said he was going to come to my house and "kill me" then he gave me an address which was suppose to be mine (i wasn't) but its funny and annoying. if you get a call from them just have fun with it. these idiots don't know anything.

I received a call from 219-357-9217 a few minutes ago and told the male with the Indian accent that I work in an IT department and did not need his help. He said he was with Microsoft Service and without hesitation told me to go ahead and log into my computer. I said I don't think so and hung up.

A woman called and said she was with Microsoft Technical security support (what I remember her saying anyway) and that my computer was sending a lot of errors being sent to their servers and that she needed the Microsoft service ID number to fix it and that if I was near my computer she could guide me on how to get the number and show me the errors. When I told her it seemed to be working perfectly she hung up on me (something a legitimate company wouldn't do). This is a total scam probably to sell the service ID numbers or to serendipitously gain access to your computer for criminal purposes. “THIS IS A SCAM PLEASE DON’T FALL FOR IT OR GIVE THEM INFORMATION FROM YOUR COMPUTER “

[12:51:07 PM] Stephanie Avery: Just got off the phone with my mom telling me her computer has this bad virus and she let the "Microsoft guy" take control of her computer to 'look around'. Asked her if her bank account info was in there and she said 'yes' .Then he stayed in there for 30 minutes. Got off phone with her, still has control of her computer and she sees it 'working' still, she thinks he is in there cleaning it b/c he still has control of her computer. on top of that, he asks for $388 before he does it!! I just now told her to call her bank immediately and phone company.It is a scam and now her bank account is drained

A man call me, he sounded like he was from overseas kept telling me I had a problem with my computer. It was something with Microsoft .I told him my computer was not even on the hooked up.He went on trying to tell me where I bought my computer and I told him he was wrong he kept fussing with me then wanted to fix this problem but I had to pay 200.00.I told him nothing was wrong with my computer and I would never let someone on the phone work on my computer and wasn't going to pay him no money.
I asked them not to call me no more.But they said they would keep calling til I paid them to fix my computers problems.

Called ID claims that this is a Comerica number. The called spoke with an Indian accent and claimed he was from Microsoft and needed to fix something on my computer. After I told the caller that I suspected he was a scammer, he immediately changed his voice/tone told me to go **** myself. Cannot find where online to report this sort of graphic harassment/scamming to FCC.

He said he was calling from Microsoft and my computer was transmitting error messages to them. I told him I've already heard of this scam so he should try to think up a new one before he called back.
