Another call from Microsoft, allegedly, saying i have computer problem. Complete extortion, scam, fraud et cetera, if it like my original experience of thick east indian person wanting access to my computer so they can charge me hundreds of dollars to extract a fake virus. They tried to simulate bios and built-in computer memory screen that was obviously fake. and run parameters to fake computer malfunctions

An Indian guy called me from this number claiming to work for the Microsoft service center (I know there's no such thing). He told me my computer sent a message to Microsoft about a fatal error in my system. I decided to go along with what he said not actually following his instruction's. I called the police on my cell phone and told them the situation while I was muted on my landline. They traced the number and told me to stay on the phone. About a half hour of this Indian guy trying to get my information there were sirens and he hung up. I can guarantee he got at bear minimum of a $1000 fine.

Stupid people from India, or other Muslim type country. Do not respond to these scammers! They call and try to get you to get on your computer and what? You're not hacked, malware, etc. They want your information. Don't fall for it. You're computer is fine. You're fine. Ask them what your name is. They won't be able to answer you. And block them.

3 calls in a hour today from this number. Obviously spam. Going on my block list!

Just got a call from an Indian guy (caller ID reads "JOSHEPHINE WEEDE" - who's that??), who at first said he was from the Technical Dept of Microsoft, alerting me that they had received messages from my computer indicating that it was infected with malicious software. When I questioned him on being Microsoft, he changed it to an independent company that has worked with Microsoft. I then asked him if he was trying to sell me a software package and he hung up.
