These calls are classic tech support scams, often from individuals claiming to be from Microsoft or similar tech companies. The caller, usually with a heavy Indian accent, insists your computer is compromised or infected with viruses and tries to gain remote access to fix it. They might use your real name and address to appear legitimate. If you receive these calls, don’t engage or give any personal information. Block the number and report it to the FTC at DoNotCall.gov. Stay vigilant and avoid answering calls from unknown numbers, especially during dinner time. These scammers are persistent, but ignoring them is your best defense.
