• Phone call from fake Tecnical Microsoft company?

  Hello.  Just had a phone call from a person accentuated heavy telling me that I had a few problems with my PC, he asked that I turn it on so that he could help me. There siad it was a Microsoft technical service and he knew that I had problems, I refused to do what he asked of course.  I called 1471 and his number was retained. I would like to hear your comments on that.  How did he know I had problems? Thank you. Trish

  It is WRONG of course and it's SCAM.

  Could someone tell just a PC has a problem, no matter what operating system you are using due time, it will become slow or programs you have installed can cause problems. That's why clean and defragnment came and also in more technical case he was invited to contact Microsoft support. The person calling you don't know what your problem is and just make a few guess common problems which may confront a system.

  Microsoft will NEVER call you unless you called them or ask them to call you.

• Phone call from Windows Support is authentic?

  I just got a phone call from a man named Philippe de Windows Support. He said that he was receiving reports of errors in my windows and asked me to check Computer Management Applications to find errors. He asked me to remove these errors. I could not remove so he said: if I went to a Web site that he could delete them for me. I refused to let him to the computer via the code and said that I would like to remind him. His number was 02032865123, he said, that it has been supported Windows. He had an Indian accent. It is a call?
  It's my son e-mail account, but it will transmit to me.

  This is HOAX and FAKE for sure. Microsoft will never contact you unless call you them first and ask for help. Microsoft will never know which PC encourage error.

  Microsoft has none of the unsolicited telephone calls to help you fix your computer

  In this type of scam cybercriminals are calling you and claim to be of Support technique Microsoft. They offer help with your computer problems. Once scammers have earned your trust, they try to steal and damage your computer with malicious software, including viruses and spyware.

  Although the law enforcement can trace phone numbers, often authors use pay telephones, disposable cell phones or stolen cellular phone numbers. Better avoid fooling themselves rather than try to repair the damage afterwards.

  Treat all unsolicited sceptically telephone calls. Don't provide personal information.

  If you receive an unsolicited call from someone who claims to be from Technical Support Microsoft, hang up. We do not have such calls.

  If you think you might be a victim of fraud, you can report it. For more information, see: what to do if you think you have been scammed.

• Someone had a phone call from a crook "Windows Care"?

  Yesterday, on November 4, @ 5:00 p.m. PDT, I received a phone call from a man with an accent who knew my name saying he called "Windows Care" and there was a problem with my computer.  I hung up.

  I wonder if others get these calls in North America.  I read that it was a wave of them earlier in the year in the United Kingdom. How he got my phone number and name? How can protect yourself you?

  JenniferAnne, Victoria BC, CANADA

  It's a scam and the calls are received in Europe and North America we know... probably in Asia and South America also.  Name and telephone number could come from "the directory" or any public documents.  Protect you by doing exactly what you did... you were enough NET determine this was a scam and you have hung up.
