I just got my second one of these calls.
Hi: I'm from microsoft support calling to warn you that your computer has many
infections...... and I am calling to help you get rid of them"
I played the game with him awhile. He had me start a run box and type in "inf"
and enter, then told me all those files are problems. He then told me to type
into the run box www.teamviewer.com, which I later checked to be a remote access
provider.
At that point, I told him is was great fun wasting his time, but that was as far
as it goes. He responded with a couple F.U.s and hung up.
The guy was calling from a big operation. There were lots of voices and noises
in the background.
I wonder how many people get scammed by this? Must be a lot to have a room full
of people doing this.
If you get such a call, have a little fun too. Let's really waste their time.
Anyone think my action will get me off their call list?
