I didn't answer this phone call as all it says is Utah on the caller i.d., the area code of 801 is indeed from the Salt Lake City, UT area. However, this is a scam in order for them to extract credit card information from you. It has nothing to do with viruses on your computer. These people are taking a chance that you will fall for their Microsoft calling because you have a serious virus and they need to help you take care of it right away.
There are articles that I have found online regarding this Microsoft scam. One malware tech was able to figure it all out by following their directions so they could try to catch these nasty creatures.
When they call, answer it, tell them do not call back to your home because you are aware of their scam and that you do not have a computer at all.
