"Microsoft" scam - again.
"Microsoft" scam - again.
Had a call today from "Josef at the Windows Service Centre". I didn't let him get further than that brief intro. Yes, they are at it again. Scammers pretending to be Microsoft attempting to get your bank information. Please note, Microsoft will never ring you. Just put the phone down.

Re: "Microsoft" scam - again.
I had one of these calls a few months ago and told the caller that I was a retired Director of IT and was more than capable of sorting out any issues for myself. Her script couldn't cope with that and she kept as it for ages whilst I wound her up just for the fun of it.

I kept one on line for over an hour once .... he ended up calling me a 'mother sucker' (or something like that!!) and hung up on me.
I consider it a public service that while I am winding them up, at least they are not conning other innocent people!!
