I received an email that I was selected to complete a "Microsoft Licensing Verification" assessment. Upon review with our IT company, we filled out and returned their spreadsheet (how many licenses we had of various types". This prompted another entity to reach out to me, directing me to their website. It was all a sales tactic, and they impersonated Microsoft. The original request seemed legit but it turned out to be phishing. They were very aggressive, indicating participation was mandatory and required due to our licenses.

Type of a scam Tech Support

Microsoft defender flashed an alert on the screen saying the computer was locked up and to call a number allegedly Microsoft. Anna MS id 101821766 called from 7075057415 claiming to be a MS employee and would help me solve the problem. Using the "cmd" prompt we discovered 22 apparently hacker IPs. She connected me to one of our banks where it was suggested that our identities were at risk. This person, Tony Smith, 7072326717, claimed to be the fraud manager for Wells Fargo. He proceeded to direct me to move all the money out of the account to "CoinFlip" to buy crypto currency. His number has been disconnected.

Type of a scam Phishing

Microsoft security alert regarding virus attack. Windows blocked by a pop up banner stating not to close or click any links.

Called phone number on the pop up.

Respondent asked series of questions asking to verify email accouns and bank accounts.

Asked to download ultraviewer app to the pc. Which was done.

Appeared to have downloaded c drive content.

Then wanted cell phone access which then became red flag.

Respondent insisted he needed to be able to forward the call to the bank headoffice. Couldn't do so from a land line. He became aggressive and disrespectful.

Ended the call but unsure of damage. Likely we will be victim of ID fraud.

While browsing the internet I had a security alert pop from what seemed like Microsoft (it had what looked like their logo) locked up my computer and told me not to do anything until I contacted them at the number on the screen. I called the number and they had me download ULTRAVIEWER app so I could share my computer with them. Once they were in, they showed me some files and explained that some of the files were hacked and that they would fix them. He gave me a name, phone number, badge number, security code. He then told me to turn off my computer and he would call me back when they got rid of the hacks. He also told me not to talk to anyone about this and if I receive a call from anyone including him that I was to ask for the security code that he provided me. Fortunately, I do follow directions very well and I talked to my son about it when he got home. He convinced me that I had been Hacked and to reset my computer and change all my passwords. Unfortunately, it was 6 hours later and I don't know how much info they were able to get off my computer. I'm a very skeptical person, but they made this seem so real that I fell for it. Everybody needs to be aware that these hackers are better than you think they are. Be safe!
