    scammers fake support

    Hi thomaspitts1,

    please explain the issue in more detail.

    microsoft will not phone you to tell you that you need support

    Microsoft will not email you to tell you that you need support

    Microsoft will not hijack your browser with a page telling you that you need support.

    Microsoft will not post phone numbers in the forum suggesting you call

    If you have seen any of those then your title is correct they are scammers.

    Tech Support Scammers

    Any tech support (from anybody) that you did not initiate is a scam.

    microsoft (and any other legitimate tech company) WILL NOT call you unless YOU have previously arranged it.

    microsoft error messages NEVER suggest you call a number.

    uninstall any software that they told you to install. and read

    "What to do if a tech support scammer already has your info"

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/401340...

    let us know how you get on
