* Original title: mess up BIG TIME
I was called by a man saying he was with Microsoft, and that someone tried to hack my computer. They consulted my system through a program called somewhere or some how some way when I told them that I had already paid for anti virus and hacking they hung up but still had control of my computer. They continued to open the files, even if I tried to stop my mouse does not work only them would be. Please let me know how do I know if they have access to everything and I have to do next... .change all accounts, passwords or is it at the end? I'm not a computer person and appreciate any help I can get. Thank you, Sue

I received a call from company telling me that someone tried to hack my pc.
This company called and told me that someone tried to hack my pc... It scared me senseless and I called the BBB and they withdraw.
I t seems to be a well-established company, but then another company called a few days later with the same story. I don't remember his name
but they use Windows 7 technical support as their introduction to leading and they are Mexican. The appeal mainly to. UtahI hope that this will keep others from talking to them. Simply hang up. You can't understand what they say. They have several phone numbers for the United States
and international society.I need to reformat my pc.

Fake phone calls to technical support
Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.
That you have followed the advice above, that your PC is no more at risk than before the phone call. Make sure that you practice safe even if - computing it lots of good advice here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/pc-security/default.aspx .
See also:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/security/online-privacy/msname.aspx .
Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.
These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.

Help. What is going on? Microsoft 'temporarily blocked my account due to unusual activity on your Windows Live account.' The only explanation that I can think is little before closing, I have exchanged emails with someone who had strange astrology and text of vitamins in his e-mail, but why would close receiving this gibberish to the bottom of my ability to send an email?
I tried several things to fix the problem.
(1) WLSC tried SMS a password for my phone, but the text I get from their share on the phone said "to meet with STOP or HELP. Send SMS HELP to WSLC did nothing.
(2) WLSC also sent me a link to a "page of personal support" and a "PIN code", but the link opens a generic page. There is no place on the page to enter the PIN code.
I can access my Inbox windows live, but I can not send. I don't see the same messages I try to send in my Outbox / Finally, solve this problem when I received another email from WLSC
