WARNING: MICROSOFT PHONE SCAM!!!
A heads up for the computer users out there...There appears to be a new scam making it's way thru PJ....An unsolicited caller contacts you claiming to be from Microsoft...He then says they noticed that your drivers are out of date and tells you Microsoft must access your computer to fix the problem...Once in to your computer, they grab any/all personal info you might have stored there and perhaps even install a virus to collect more!...Happened to a friend, who had to have her computer cleaned & restored AND had to cancel/change all her credit cards and banking info!....Just tonight my husband got the same type of call...the call came from an area code of 404, but could not be reached via a callback...
BE VERY CAREFUL...NEVER EVER let someone who calls you into your computer or for that matter, never give out any personal info solicited like that!....
