  Hello

  Which is called Spoofing and its pretty easy for a spammer to make.
  Of course it makes it look like you or the other person who sent the
  Messaging. Someone intercepted a mail and it may not have been
  You causing him. Account of a friend could have been consulted
  or even someone could have sent an email on your part for
  someone else who has been compromised. Your friend can access to the
  headers and block the real senders, although these will be changed
  often.

It telling me it has to do with security, and I was among those who are chosen. It's true, I ignored the premiera but today I had another, first said he would cut in 24 hours, now its two weeks.

  I received a call from Microsoft that someone charged with software piracy on my computer.
  This call is really Microsoft?

  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.

  Please see:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.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.
