Scam alert!!
Just had a phone call from a gentleman called Michael who sounded very Indian or Pakistani. He advised me that he was with the Microsoft Corporation and they had noticed there was a problem with my computer. Shock. Horror. I hung up.
My telephone number is ex-directory, Wonder how they got it? People, be wary.

They must catch out a lot of people to keep this going so long so worth posting. :>

I used to vary my response from incredulity, "You're all the ay over there in India and you can see a virus in my computer, wow!" to stringing them along for a while to just shouting NO! and slamming the phone down.
I haven't heard from them in a while.
