It is a scam. I received dozens of calls from "Microsoft Support Centre" informing me that my computer is "reporting a serious error". I often have more than one computer running but they can't tell me the IP address of the faulty one, it's just "the one you are using". When I ask why my [b]Linux[/b] machines would report anything to Microsoft, they usually hang up immediately. They can't easily plant viruses on Linux computers. ;)
