Expert Opinion

Like a wolf in sheep's clothing, those early‑morning calls masquerading as Windows support aim to lull you into a false sense of security. Callers routinely spoof the caller ID, use an Indian accent, and throw vague error messages to sound official. Never grant remote access or download software from an unsolicited source. Hang up, block the number, and report the incident to your carrier and the FTC. If you’re ever unsure, independently verify the claim by contacting Microsoft directly through their official website. Caller ID spoofing, tech support scam, and blocking are your best defenses against these persistent fraud attempts.
