Got a call, saying it was a pc problem. My computer was sending them error messages. They told me what to do. Went thru step by step so I could see "error" messages and "Warnings", then directed me to their website where they then had access to my lap top. I became worried and ended call and shut down computer.
good, you do a right thing. They were scammer. nothing they are receiving from your computer.
All the windows computer have errors and warnings. this is not harming the computer.
Yes, I received the exact same call. "John" phoned and stated that he was alerted by Microsoft that there was an error on my computer and that 90% of my computer was noting errors. I went through as he suggested, and was transferred to his supervisor "Eric". I was asking Eric many questions and became concerned when he had full viewing and access rights to my computer. I canceled all of the windows and contintued to ask additional questions, he then hung up on me.
