• Phone call to technical support Windows

  I just got a call from someone who claims to be from the Windows support. The voice has been strongly accentuated so it was difficult to distinguish what he said, but it sounded like my computer has been infected by a virus that can crash at any second. My security system does not display any problem. It of call for real and has made a Windows tech support person really call me?

  Thank you

• I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer.

  Original title: scams?

  I continue to receive calls from numbers not available with an Indian accent saying that they are from the Technical Department of windows and I have a problem with my computer. Normally, I just say that I don't have and hung up. Today, I took a little further and he said that they discovered that I had loads of malware/viruses etc and that they could identify with them. I was obviously very suspicious because he seemed to have my correct Windows ID number and with care on 'Run' he told me to type things like cmd eventviewer and inf where he referred to a file 1394.pnf. I stopped while he asked remotely to access my computer. However, I got a phone number 01916450337 and his P786000 id I noticed that many people are posting on your forum-is this another one of those scams?

  Continue to put the phone down. They are all crooks.

  They get you to open Event Viewer, because there are words such as 'critical' and 'error' along the this.

• I continue to receive calls from a company called wintech.

  I continue to receive calls from a company called wintech and a man who is obviously in India, but called Shane Watson!   I was on the phone for about 3 hours for him today!  I pay money for them last year and am now being harassed to pay more. He gave me a 020 30262097 phone number and identification number to authenticate his call. The company that the payments go to the e-business solutions East nias. He showed me the screens that are supposed to be errors on my PC and also stated that the pirates are using my IP address to hack other computers?  I don't know if it is a lie. It sounds me again in the morning to take payment for software that is supposed to be for a "performance booster PC + anti software piracy" after reading some of these posts, I'm now really worried that he already won access to my PC.

  Hello

  It's a scam.

  We have all the errors and warnings in our Event Viewer, which is another ploy they use to scare you

  Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.

  You are the only person who knows if you gave them remote access.

  If you gave them remote access and you do Internet banking, contact your bank, to explain, and change passwords.

  If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.

  And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

• I got Windows 7 activated, but I did a restore it cancelled. Can what number I call for technical support?

  I called a number of technical support for Microsoft and they transferred me to a specialist for the Activation Center, and she got my active product.  A few days later, I noticed something that I had downloaded had a few additional programs with it.  From my experience, until it became a problem, I tend to put the computer in a day or two to back it up on the problem.  When I did it this time, I was sure that the restoration would not affect the activation, but he did.  Now I have seven days left... can someone please give me a number to get my reactive product?

• My pc is running very slowly - I constantly receive calls telephone from 'people' who claim to be agencies of Microsoft.

  I'm runnign windows xp home edition - with aol as my internet provider.

  I've known extremely long delays in response times - often enough, it can take 10-15 minyes to open my internet session - other times it can be quite fast - compliant nothing. !!

  I also have times of long waiting for any intervention on the internet - sometimes the pc stops and I have to restart the pc to continue - this can happen 2 / 3 times in a 30 minute session.

  I also received several phone calls from agencies that are supposed to work for microsoft - informing me that I have a problem - and that they can 'fix' it, for me - until now, that I refused to authorize an any of them access to my pc - however, the symptoms they describe are exactly what I saw!

  A friend told me that there is a known issue in windows xp - that a file error that is created automatically in the software of microsoft xp - does not automatically clear down - and that is what is causing the pc to degrade and eventually - if not fixed - will cause the pc to get slower and slower.

  Is this true and if so what is the solution please.

  Any help/advice greatly appreciated! -Thanks a lot

  Phone calls are certainly a scam.

  Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

  If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  -

  You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

  -

  Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  I hope this helps. Good luck.

• Technical support windows call not requested?

  I just got a phone call from the Windows support. Lady asked me to press windows and r. subsequently a screen with warnings appeared. Unable to get a direct response of the Lady on what was going on, so cancelled phone call. Worries me now that I opened my computer up to pirates. Any advice would be very welcome.

  NO, it's a call of 'SPAM '.

  Ignore them, hang up, don't give them any details and do not allow access to your PC.

  See - https://www.microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

  If you have entered a few commands that she gave you, then you are likely to be OK according to what were the controls. Often they are simply watching the event logs or information UUID. If only awaits you and you gave no specific details of return, then you're OK.

  But if they have installed anything, or if you allow them access, or gave them no information, so you can be compromised. At the very least "What to do if you have already given information to a tech support person", see in particular:

  • Change password of your computer, change the password on your main email account and the password for all the accounts financiers, especially your credit cards and credit.

  • Scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner to find out if you have malicious software installed on your computer.
