Someone posted this link in another group. I thought it was interesting and pass it on before they start calling people in the US. Note: This scam has mostly happened in the UK but they could start calling people here or doing a similar scam here.
Just remember, Microsoft WILL NOT CALL YOU without you contacting them first and asking them to call you back. Here is the link: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/xpsecurity/thread/be88f47d-a1ba-4b19-9303-4520575a8d9a
