Watch out for a call from Microsoft Windows Online Support #scam


I've just received a call from Microsoft Windows Online Support.
The man on the phone said I had a problem with my laptop and that he needed to connect to my laptop remotely.
Of course this is a scam to get you to pay them for support you don't require and to put malware and viruses on your machines.
If you get a call they might send you to these websites

www.windowsonlinesup.webs.com

or

www.freewebs.com/windowsonlinesup

Please don't let them connect to your computer.

P.S.
If you get a call ask them where they're calling from.
My caller said from England Wawickshire.
I asked how far was it from Edinburgh
Answer: Half an hour
