I love those guys. They called me and asked me if my computer was on, I told him it wasn't on even though it was.  He then asked me to turn it on and I told him, NO!. He kept trying for about 5 minutes and got pissed off at me and told me that he was going to block my computer from their servers and if he does that then I will never be able to use my computer again.  I told him that blocking my computer from their servers sounds good and to go ahead and do it.

Based on the scam my computer should be a piece of junk that can never be used again.  The next time they call me. That's the story that I'll give them.  I'll tell them that their information is wrong and it can't possibly be my computer because they blocked it from the servers and not its piece of junk that doesn't work. lol.

Those guys are worst than the Nigerian Scams that were big back in the day.

There is also a Job employment scam as well.  These people will ask for when you are born and the first or last 4 or 5 digits of your social security number as part of sending the resume.  These guys are more dangerous than the Microsoft scam, because they prey on people who are desperately seeking work.
