**WINDOWS MS SCAM** They have another phone number to play with. The reader ID stated "N Carolina" and the young woman I talked with could barely speak English. After she said her name, I asked her kindly to repeat her name. She didn't understand what I was asking. She then got a young male rep on the line. He said his name was "Keevan" in broken English with the typical "we're from Windows Technical Support and we're receiving errors from your computer." I politely asked his name and then he hung up.
"Keevan" called me back and apologized for hanging up! Wow! They are good. I kept asking him where he was located and where he was calling from. He said he was in Salt Lake City and I said the reader ID stated North Carolina. He had a pat response for that. I argued with him that I have Windows Vista and MS does not support Windows Vista anymore. He had a pat answer for that. Then he said "so you want to verify that I am Windows Technical Support." I said "yes." He was going to take me back to my computer and type some more stuff and he would tell me my code . . . or something. Wow -- they are getting very good. DON'T FALL FOR IT. DON'T GIVE THEM ACCESS TO YOUR COMPUTER. HANG UP ON THEM!
