We have the same scam here in Australia. I was getting calls almost daily until I blew a whistle in their ear, haven't heard from them since :)

They are fishing for money. One of my kids responded and they put a virus in her computer and then re quired money to fix it. Stay away from them.

No. It sounds like a scam to me.

Its a scam. DO NOT let anyone who calls you have access to your computer. Microsoft will not contact you about viruses. If you are letting MS collect information on your computer they use it to improve they Microsoft Security Essentials -- not to call you back.

I have had to let folks at companies I know trouble shoot DH's computer, but I initiated the call and I knew the person is legitimate. In addition, they do not ask for your password -- you log them on so they can't get back in without your consent.

Be very careful of your privacy -- the scammers are always trying new things to get past your guard.

That is a scam -- It was reported on our news channels. Don't ever let them talk you into going to your computer and following their instructions. They are trying to get access to your computer.
