Microsoft ringing from America?

Just had a phonecall at home here in France from an Indian woman supposedly phoning from the Microsoft headquarters in Florida. I could barely understand her, she was telling me my computer was a danger, that it had all sorts of malware on it and she was going to help me get rid of it. First of all we hardly ever use the home computer as we both have tablets, secondly has anyone else had this recently. I said goodbye and hungup, she continued to ring at least another 7 times in a row !! It was an 00564 no.

yup that's it Jane :)

Ian and Deborah, I looked it up and apparently it, s them who download spyware and malware on your computer if they get you to turn it on.I wo , t reply anymore lol

I've had that number ring. As I only reply to say "b****r off" I've not known what the scam was :)

Thanks David, thought it was a bit weird.

It's a common problem. Just ignore. They are scammers on a phishing expedition.
