Do people actually believe these scammers that their computers are actually putting out a virus message that Microsoft themselves monitor and call you up to repair? I have gotten these call center, India/Middle Eastern 'technicians' calling and despite their persistence and my informing them that none of my computers are Windows based (all Macs here), I was informed that I was as liar and a few other unsavory and extremely unprofessional acronyms. Please people... this ranks up there with those click like, share, and forward to 4,000 of your friends so God with love you posts and emails. This is not how any of this works!
Got a call from another number today but was given this number to call back. I was playing with them. They said they were calling from Windows support, I told them I had a Mac and I was mad at my BF for giving them my number and would have to call them back. In any case, yes, it's a scam, but you can at least try and have fun with them...
