Expert Opinion

Apparently a caller claiming to be from Microsoft said my computer wasn't receiving updates, but the story sounded off. The pattern matches a classic tech‑support scam: the fraudster uses a familiar brand, invents a problem, and pushes a callback number that routes to a remote operator. They often mention staff IDs or fake reference numbers to appear legitimate. If you receive such a call, hang up immediately, never grant remote access, and do not call the supplied number. Verify any alerts through official channels, update software directly from the vendor’s website, and consider reporting the number to your carrier or a consumer protection agency.
