    Windows Activation scam call?


    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I just got a follow up call to when I called Microsoft Support over reactivating my digital license after a hardware upgrade and it seemed super suss. Asking for remote desktop access, transferring to multiple 'Level 2' technicians, audio quality from the stone age and a windows key that didn't even work.

    Anyone else had an experience like this so my paranoia is somewhat alleviated?
