Microsoft phone call I cannot believe this scam is still a thing!! ' im calling you from...

I have been watching YouTubes by some hacker-types fed up with phone scams. So they organize and fight back, and report them to police, and in some cases gain acesss to their computers and copy and delete files, and turn on their webcams and show their faces back to them.

It culminated in a huge bust in India. It always seems to be Indians. They were being protected by a politician who also is in trouble now.

Of course, you cannot trust all you see on YouTube, but it was entertaining and satisfying.

My last spam call was for somebody who wanted to sell me new air ducts. I rent an apartment! Sheesh.

Did he say he was from "The Microsoft"? 😆

Did he have an Indian accent, yet his name was Patrick?

Scam o' rama.

It never ends.
There's a whole industry out there.
Those who call you with the scenario mentioned above are the least threatening.
Real cyber criminals go after trade secrets, patents, ideas stored in your PC. You'll never know they were there. When they want money they go after large institutions.
To protect yourself don't check email, text, chat, do leisure browsing on the phone or computer that holds your important information.

I had one of those calls once. I screwed around with him for almost 15 minutes before he realized I was on a Mac.

Give the phone to your toddler grandchild and say it's Santa, guarantee they'll never call again.
