He called to say that he represents Microsoft and some errors have been noticed within my operating system. He requested that I let him take over the controls on my computer.

I hung up. I’ve heard of this scam. The caller takes over the controls, as well as all the information he desires – bank account numbers, Social Security numbers, you name it. If it’s in the computer, it’s fair game.

Be careful out there, neighbors. There appears to be a new scam every minute.
