Same thing! Some dude with a really bad accent claiming my Microsoft machine was sending error codes and threatening to take the "server" down???? Obviously a stupid remark!! I told him "Dude no problem, I'll shut it down fold it up and throw it in the lake behind my house. My apple was working just fine." Jee! He hung up! Go figure!
New number! Microsoft "you got a virus" scam. People who can't speak English trying to tell you they are from Microsoft support and you are releasing a virus from your computer. In all truth, they are wanting to gain access into your system to steal your personal information as well as other family members.
I just received call from this number 801-823-6902 and the guy said he was a authorized technician for Windows Operating system and they traced my IP address. He was very hard to understand, thick accent, and was irratated I wouldn't let him walk me through fixing my computer...lol
Exact same call received 5/25/15....as soon as I told him, 'strangely enough, I don't own a computer' the phone went dead.
I received another similar call in the past.
