Windows Scam

There's a new and very nasty scam going around. You get a phone call. The person on the other end says:

We are calling about your computer. We got a notice that your computer is downloading some malicious programs. We know that because you are using our operating system Windows.

Yeah, they want you to believe they are calling from Microsoft. Obviously the intent is to sell you some bogus virus cleaning service.

Please warn your less computer savvy friends.
