My watermark came before I did the recent update on CC 2015, always when I would export to PhotoShelter. Now, the watermark does not appear. I asked PhotoShelter for help and they said they have heard about other problems. How can I solve this? Nothing has changed on my computer. Thank you.

I just got a call from someone who said they were from Microsoft. It was obviously of the India. In any case, he said that there are problems with my computer and it asked me to do something, I would not. He hung up. He told me to click the button of windows on my keyboard. Then he told me type something in and running. But I refused. I said, how end I call Microsoft and give them your name... HE HUNG UP.
Hello DianeMcGettigan,
It is simply one of the many scams that are doing the tour.
Unless you have a prepaid support contract with Microsoft, then Microsoft will never contact you by phone, mail or e-mail about problems with your PC. You did while refusing to allow him access to your PC. All they want to do is to have access to your PC, so they can steal personal data (banking etc.) on your part.
This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

I got a phone call from someone who said they were from microsoft and my computer was in danger, unless I paid 130 pounds for a new warranty, is it a scam?
Hi Debra,
It's a SCAM! Microsoft does not make that neither have they partners that do and don't they hire contractors or individuals or even to find volunteers to do. There are probably thousands of these companies out there do every day - we get two or three posts like this (or more) each day ask about it. You are lucky who have recognized the scam enough not to be sucked in and eventually identify theft, infections, hacking your computer, convince you to buy software or services you either did not need or that do not really exist at all and all sorts of nefarious stuff. You'd be surprised how much contact us AFTER THAT that they realized they had been duped asking what to do. Don't waste time talking to these people, not give them any personal information it is, don't be fooled by what they can get allows you to see on the computer - in fact, not do anything they suggest on your computer or even to visit Web sites they recommend and for the love of God don't give them access to your computer.
Microsoft knows this is happening, but with these companies popping up like dandelions, or closing and changing names when discovered and operating mainly from abroad, it would take an army of lawyers to sue each other. They do the best they can, but they are just too many and more added every day. People need to pay attention to these things. They occur not only by telephone, but also by e-mail, instant messaging, mail and all the ways imaginable. Forget not that Microsoft doesn't this and hang up or remove the emails or messages or mail from someone claiming that they do because they know the information on your computer or that you want to get information from you to confirm your account so that it will not be closed and asking you your name of user and password and all sorts of other personal information. Microsoft DO NOT!

It's what warranties are for. If you bought the phone from Apple or an Apple authorized reseller, iPhone, you have 14 days to return it for a refund. After that the Bank should replace the phone. If you did not buy from Apple or a shop authorized, you must respect the terms of this store. However, Apple will always replace the phone, if you contact them directly.

My ip6glass Panel is the lifting of his body. There is a black spot on the left corner. How much would it cost if I go to the Apple Store because my warranty is expired. I heard that they would replace it for free even if the warranty has expired. Is this true? Thank you
Sorry, but at least the screen needs to be replaced. Do you have the battery exchanged in the past?
Visit an Apple Retail Store or an authorized Apple Apple Service Provider next to your place to achieve this.
You can also contact the Apple Support to send it.

Almost certainly, it was a scam and with various names and phone
numbers, one that has become very common these days. See

If you leave them in your computer, who knows what they were doing or where
What confidential information they stole.So if you have done so, I highly recommend that you do both of the following
immediately:1 do a clean reinstall of Windows.
2. after reinstallation of Windows, change all your passwords.
especially the banks or other
financial sites.Since they have perhaps installed a recorder of strikes, changing just your
Passwords may not be good enough. -
I received a call from the
saying that they would help my dose of my windows problems. Is it a scam? Hello
They are cold, you try to pick up the 'business' calling
It's a scam.
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.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
And Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.
