CallerID Name: LOUIS
CallerID Number: 210-319-5026
Called had a thick accent, and claimed to be calling from Microsoft about my windows computer. This call is complete fraud. I've had customers receive this call and fall to some degree to it, and I've had to repair the damage as they attempt to walk a customer through modifying their computer to be receptive to a direct hack attack (i.e. they will connect to your computer when its on the internet and they will do anything to it that they want, including using your machine for storage of malware or as a bot in a DoS attack on others).
DO NOT let them convince you to modify anything on your computer, they are claiming to know, but they are just taking fixed details on any windows computer and using it to appear knowledgeable.
