Cet indien se faisait passer pour un agent microsoft pour me dire que mon ordinateur provoquait des virus sur la toile. Il me disait de garder la ligne et mettre mon ordinateur en ligne pour qu'il puisse en prendre le controle et corriger le problème. J'ai raccroché et depuis ce temps ils rappellent régulièrement (2 fois par mois). Si vous le pouvez ne répondez pas à ce numéro.
They claimed to be from Microsoft and wanted to know if there were any error messages on my computer. They had a program that would remove all the viruses that were on my hard drive. Handed me off to two other people claiming to be tech support for Microsoft. When I found out it was just a sales call and confronted them on it they last statement I heard as they hung up was "he is not going to buy" and then click. This is BS. I am sure Microsoft has other things to do other than call everyone using a Micrsoft operating system and offer repairs. They seemed to be of middle eastern or indian descent by there voices.
THIS IS A SCAM. Read about the your-PC-is-infected-corrupted scam here http://news.softpedia.com/news/Cold-Call-Tech ... on-150170.shtml They lie about your PC sending out malware, error messages, etc., and say your PC is about to crash to frighten you into giving them remote control of your PC to fix the nonexistent problem (don't let them!). If they ask you to open the systems tab in eventvwr.msc to see all the errors, these harmless errors are *normal* for any Windows PC (mine has several and it runs just fine). Don't let them take control of your PC because they can download *real* malware, possibly a malware suite, that can spam, steal bank logins and personal info, etc. If they've remoted into your PC, the safest fix is to re-format your drive and re-install your OS assuming you have clean backups of your data. You can try scanning with various antivirus software but scanning may not find all the malware. If you don't know how, get help from friends or pay a local shop to do it. THIS IS A SCAM.
It is especially dangerous now because criminals are actively attacking unpatched Java security holes so don't let anyone into your PCs.
