Hi all,
I just called Microsoft help line for people with disabilities at
1 800 936 5900
The event viewer shows error all over your computer. I asked if they could
have penetrated my computer and he said no.
Most likely they were looking for me to buy their software to fix all my
fatal and minimum problems on my PC.
I did google it and it states a scam.
I am surprised that they would target me because I am using XP.
I don't think they will call again. Thanks for all your responses.
If they call again, I'll ask for her phone number and I will call her back.
Click most likely will be the answer.
I did run MSE and Malware Bytes and no problems.
Have a great day.
Ann

+ same thing happened to me a while ago. I told this before. They called me
one day and said I had to buy this package from them because my computer
was going to crash any time. I told them I had four computers in this house
and that I didn't have the authority to do that. They called three or four
more times and then stopped. I think it was a big scam to get information.
They said I could buy a package for each computer and fix them all.After
about five days they stopped calling me.

Hi a friend of mine had the same thing happen to her but she did as they
ask. Then thought better of it and called ms on her other phone and was
told
to shut down her computer because she had just gave them access to
everything on her computer.

Hi all,
An Indian woman called my phone today and no valid caller id.
She wanted me to type the following in run dialog, event viewer eventvwr
I
began but then gave the phone to my husband.
We could not understand what they were saying.
I asked how she got my phone number, international files.
Anybody know about this and what exactly is it?
Unsure if a scam or not. But now I'll run Malware bytes and then MSE.
