I recieved a call from "Microsoft Support" today. Yeah right !!! They appear to be scammers that I have traced back to atleast 2011. You can look it up under "microsoft supprt scam".

If your wondering what it is here is a video of someone else playing along. lol

Fake Call From Microsoft Tech Support - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Efu75RnJAQA)


It was funny when they were talking to me and they asked what virus support I was using and I told them it was the one that my employer at the NSA said to use on my machine. I didnt know calls could hang up that fast. lol

Anyway, just a warning so others know about this. It is a total scam. Do not give information to anyone that you dont know at anytime. The call did not have caller ID. It still was good for a laugh.

They called my wife as well. She rather enjoyed playing along with them.
Basically they want to create a remote connection before they rife your personal information looking for bank and other financial details.

They called Alty as well. She toyed with them pretty good.

I watch a lot of TV. It's mentioned repeatedly.

There's a post on Facebook of someone playing along for literally hours. Pathetic.

I have a whistle I blow into the phone when they call. Hopefully they have a headset on.
