Dodgy Indian mob pretending to be from Microsoft. Basic formula is:
- give you a pop up telling you you've got viruses and need to call this number.
- number claims to be from Microsoft.
- if you call, they will try to talk you into remote control of your PC, presumably so they can install malware or look for useful personal / financial deatils.
- they will then try to sell you an 'antivirus package', citing all sorts of risks if you don't. Several options up to USD499.
It's a convincing scam. The 1800 number should be cancelled as it's the only Australian element to it and is probably tricking some victims into believing it's legitimate.
Dodgy link to microsoft tech support BIG scam.
