Yikes- someone with a heavy foreign accent claimed my computer has been sending in error messages to Microsoft. He told me to go into the My Computer folder and look at the error messages and to delete them. Of course they would not delete so then he wanted me to go to www.ammyy.com where he could remotely remove the error messages. Thats when I hung up!!!!
They called today, paused, said Mr. L*****, I said yes, they hung up. Looks like a scam but I have no idea why unless they were just verifying that this was the right last name. Checked the caller ID and it gave me the number 213-797-3000 which is from LA, California. So far that's all I got. I did receive another phone call about 2 or 3 months ago with about the same situation but I did not keep track of the number to connect the two. Hope this is all it is and it doesn't go any further.
They called me today, also in Alaska, paused, said Mr. L*****, I said yes, they hung up. Looks like a scam but I have no idea why unless they were just verifying that this was the right last name. Checked the caller ID and it gave me the number 213-797-3000 which is from LA, California. So far that's all I got.

I got a call from this same person on Sunday and when he said he was from Windows Support, I said wrong number and he yelled "Do you have a computer?!" That was when I hung up and went back to sleep. They must think Alaskans are backward.
