Earlier today, a wave of automated calls pretended to be Microsoft tech support, warning of a non‑existent security breach and urging a callback. This pattern matches a classic tech‑support scam: high‑frequency robocalls, urgent language, and a request for remote‑access tools. The best defense is to let the calls go to voicemail, never click links or run software, and add the number to your carrier’s call‑blocking list. Register your line with the National Do Not Call Registry, and consider a third‑party spam filter if calls persist. If you suspect a breach, contact the real company directly using verified contact details.
Experiencing a barrage of phone calls and pre-recorded voicemails within a span of mere minutes is utterly ridiculous; this is a clear case of a security breach warning about online banking and prompting a call to a supposed technical support team, all of which screams scam
