Microsoft Support Phone Scam

I get regular calls from clients proclaiming they got calls from a “Guy from India” employed by “microsoft”. Some get trapped into your calls and eventually permit the “tech” to remote in to their computer, some say goodbye and call me personally – they did the proper thing. Same story, it’s a swindle.

The Scammers show individual event logs associated with warnings and tell you that you’ve tons of viruses, or your system is wanting repairing. They now also install a software program and that shows individual errors (that could be common for your personal machine to have) and that you need to hire them on $99 or their particular “unlimited support” deal at $149 to $300.

Friendly reminders…Microsoft can never call you to tell you that your personal machine has viruses, say goodbye on anyone instantly that wants having access to your computer, call me next if you’re you might possess a virus either method.
