Alert... just got a call that my personal computer was showing errors in microsoft and Aaron (very thick accent) is telling me to do this and that.... i told him i was too busy at this time. He is to call me back in a couple of hours. So I researched this and found the following .... HEADS UP!!!!! This is a phishing attemp!. Do not give out any information. There have been reports from people about these calls from someone representing Windows (note: not Microsoft). This is a scam! Do not follow their directions or advice and provide NO information to them. Since they are using the internet and/or phone lines to accomplish their fraud, there may be federal agencies in your country that are interested in finding out about their calls. Report them directly to the appropriate agency if you feel that you can contribute in their arrest and prosecution. Microsoft does NOT pick up the phone and start dialing customers and never phones/emails people asking them for personal information or requesting them to visit some web site! Please disregard any of these calls and hang up immediately.
