It is a scam. No one should touch your computer, especially someone that cold calls you, except you, your tech or its manufacturer. Windows has it own tech support and you have to call them them, then they will give you a call back. Always make sure you use the real Microsoft web site, too many scam outfits are popping up on google as well.
These people call claiming they are Windows Support and your computer is sending error messages. They won't tell you what the problem is but then ask you to go to your computer so they can fix it. They call almost every day and even though you tell them not to call, to remove your number from their list, they still continue to call. All of the people on the phone have heavy accents. Also, my computer is rarely even turned on when they call to say it is sending the error messages. I believe it is a complete scam to hack your computers.

yeah! talked to an indian guy, he said that hes a tech guy and I have windows problem, I told him go [***] himself, he was the one who said bye to me and hung up..
The prick called me and gave me the windows support [***]. I told him don't call me and before I could hang up he tells me Listen To Me! I said go [***] yourself and hung up. He thennn called me 10 times in the next 30 min. He is still calling once a day for about a week now. I don't answer.
I AM GETTING THE SAME CRAP AND WHEN I TOLD HIM HOW SECURE MY COMPUTER IS, heavy ACCENTED GUY, ASKED ME TO TELL HIM WHAT SOFTWARE I WAS USING, I REFUSED AND HE STATED THAT HE WOULD REPORT ME TO THE CYBER POLICE, FOR HACKING THEIR SYSTEMS. ITS ALL A BUNCH OF BS, BECAUSE MY COMPUTER IS OFF WHEN I AM AT WORK.
