Tech called me from this number identifying himself as "Alex" a tech from Microsoft. Saying something is wrong with my computer and it's sending messages. He asked me if I was in front of my computer so he could show me where the problem was coming front. I told him No I was not going to do that. I told him I'll call Microsoft back and let them help me. He said no mame you can't do that, then he hung up.
Got call from this number also. Caller identified herself as Microsoft Technician and said they had many errors reported from my computer. Asked me to turn on my machine and she would help diagnose the problem. I told her I did not believe Microsoft was in the habit of making calls like this and she hung up. Guess that was a scam?
Got a call at 2pm CDT from "Alex" also, claiming to be a "Microsoft technician", and that they had received error messages from my computer indicating that my security software was not working. I did not let this go any further, as I have already heard from Microsoft that they never call end users with issues like this, so I hung up.
Called this afternoon...gave me a name, and I said WAIT! I can hear the boiler room going in the background and you really need to get some carpeted cubicles for your scam....good bye!
