Thanks for reblogging this informative post Chris. I received a call last week from a gentleman purporting to work for Microsoft. He proceeded to tell me that my computer was being used by hackers. I didn’t give him chance to elaborate but ended the call. The worrying thing is that my landline to which the call was directed is unlisted so only those individuals and/or companies I specifically provide it to should be able to call me. One could conclude that the man dialed randomly, however he knew my surname which, although not uncommon is certainly not among the most popular of last names. Beware of people purporting to be from Microsoft or indeed any other company! Kevin

Thanks for that information Kevin – There are a lot of scams going around, but I hadn’t heard of that one before now…
