We started to get these calls a couple of months ago ... I actually got sucked in and did give them access to my computer (ugh!). There were things that didn't add up and that didn't feel right, but they kept persuading me ... then when I went to pay for their "computer support package" with a debit card, it all fell apart! Some things that happened were that I kept being passed over to someone else, but it seemed that I was being passed between 2 guys - back and forth. So they would get the "supervisor", and then when I challenged the price, I got the "finance department" (who miraculously was willing to give it to me for less - not likely if they were actually Microsoft!), and so on. I was suspicious, so I kept taking screen shots and putting them into a Word file ... and they saw this. In any case, I am glad that I didn't use a credit card! Maybe I ought to report it to the police still, because I just got another call from them today, and it went to my answering machine, but when I looked up the number I found this page!
