"windows live support" scam

I received a call from a tone of voice Indies declaring what he called a "windows live support" and that my computer has been hacked. "Red flashing lights here to demonstrate that your computer has been hacked." I was suspicious, but done what said the voice. I opened the event viewer that showed many caveats and warnings from computer work bad... some 15,000 of them spanning over 2 years. They wanted me to download a file, but I refused and said I want to remember them. There was a bit of drama involved in the incident. I did a search on google for "windows live support" which returned several hits as well as some phone numbers. I called an and the voice of the East Indies told me I just had been called and that he had spoken with 'Chrissy '. He also informed me that the 'service' to clean my computer will cost at least $249. I refused, hung up and did a search for "windows live support scam." The following link came ( http://darranboyd.wordpress.com/2011/05/21/windows-live-support-scam/ ) who wore a similar activity for the past two years of several regions of the world. It is very interesting reading. All this seems like a scam and I do not understand why Microsoft has apparently done nothing to that users aware of this problem and/or close this type of scam.

Hello

Believe me, we receive dozens of these reports on a daily basis.

Go to the forum and search for following scam.

This has happened for many years. The main problem with trying to stop these scams, it's that the authors know how to stay hidden in the countries where the application of the law may be missing.
