If he had a thick "Arab" accent then OBVIOUSLY he wasn't from Egypt dummy! SCREEN your calls from now on, if you don't recognize the number DON'T ANSWER THE PHONE! DUH!
These people called my wife and wanted her to turn on her computer because they were from Microsoft and someone was loading malware. Heavy accent. Hung up when she asked where he got the number. This is a scam. Still trying to find out how they got the number
THIS PERSON CONTACTED ME VIA MY CELL PHONE. CLAIMED TO BE FROM MICROSOFT AND REQUESTED I GO AND TURN ON MY COMPUTER. I WAS SITTING AT MY COMPUTER AT THE TIME OF THE CALL . I TOLD HIM I DID NOT OWN A COMPUTER OR LAPTOP THE CLOSEST THING TO A COMPUTER I HAD WAS THIS CELL PHONE !! HE HUNG UP. THIS IS A SCAM TO GET INTO YOUR COMPUTER AND STEAL YOUR IDENTITY DON'T DO IT
