This is a message to everyone that i had a call tonight from someone saying that they worked for microsoft and saying that my computer has microsoft on it.
My computer does run microsoft and not he would not tell me his name and when i asked the question "Why has my provider not contacted me" he could not answer the question i gave out no information and he told me that my computer was going to be scammed and that i would lose my computer and that the police will be taking it from me so i told him i would be contacting the police to report him and he hung up.
I contacted the police,vodafone and netsafe to report what had happened.
Please be careful as i don't want this happening to anyone.
