Called me on my home number. I couldn't understand him at first due to the Indian accent. Said he was calling from Microsoft, told me someone was hacking my computer as we speak. Told me to go to Validator.com which takes you to W3p.validator.org. This site wants you to put in your email address. Looking down the page, I see an "HP" logo. Lucky for me, I worked for the FTC in iden***y theft and know right away IT IS A SCAM!!! I told the caller I know it's a scam, Microsoft or any company would not be calling you unless you put in a specific request for them to call you. He told me my computer would not work in 1/2 hour. I laughed, and ***g up. I contact HP who couldn't care that a scammer was using their logo. I called FTC, gave them info., they register the complaint. The area code is southern Texas, pretty close to Mexican border. If you did give them your email, I strongly suggest deleting all cookies and history as well as c****ing your password to your email. Don't know what else to say. Be careful out there!

These ******s call about every week!! Never say anything. If you call the number back, it is disconnected!! A S**** number! Same "****" different smell !!!! All these creeps use a S**** numbers, not there real number! We are wasting out time posting on this forum!!!!!!!! Nothing will happen just like listing your number on the Do-Not-Call list, N-O-T-H-I-N-G happens!!! Who knows what their real number is as they are usually calling from a fake (S****) number.... I get calls all the time from new numbers as the old ones I block on my phone. Just **** up or when the want your credit card number tell then to hold on while you get it, sure. My view... How to file with the FTC.... http://www.fcc.gov/complaints Here is how they do it, Just Google search "How to S**** a caller I.D. number" How is this legal???? Go to this link, you may have to copy and paste: http://www.creditcards.com/credit-card-news/FTC-*****s-down-on-robocall_scams-1282.php

These guys are crooks. They represent themselves as "Autorized Microsoft Services" and they say " You have corupted files on your computer....." This happens after you install or update to Windows-8. They will ask u to go to your computer and open stuff and then make some settings that will hijack your computer(s). DO NOT LET THEM COAX YOU INTO HIJACKING YOUR COMPUTERS FOR THEM AT YOUR OWN HAND! They also threaten legal action if you do not comply with their requests. Tell them that they are full-O-shat! THESE GUYS ARE SCAMMERS!!!!

I called my state attorney general's office to complain about the same type of calls described here. They told me to call the FTC - Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-382-4357 which I did. I actually got to speak with a human being who took my complaint (you have to provide your name, address, phone and email) and directed me to their web site to read about these scams. Visit www.ftc.gov and enter "microsoft scam" in the search box. The more people who contact the FTC the more that will be done (we hope!)

I have had several calls from this number. twice tonight. I tried to call the number back and the message indicated that it has been disconnected. Each time it seems to be a different person, once a woman, all who appear to have an Indian accent. They say they are from Microsoft and will help fix my computer, that I need to get on my computer right away. I have declined to do so and once I ask questions, each time they **** up.

A man "SAM", that sounded as though he was from India called me stating that he was from Microsoft and that I was a victim of a hacker. He stated that he was calling to****ist me and that it was a free service. I was very skeptical so told him I did not have a computer, he sounded confused and then he asked me if I had a laptop and I told him no. He then say good bye and ***g up.

I have received several calls from this number. finally answered - got a woman who sounded like she was from India and with Microsoft. Told me my laptop was being hacked and that if I logged on, she would show me and help me take care of it. I ***g up. They have not called back. It sounded very skeptical.
