Type of a scam Phishing
It began when on Google I searched and found a site related to Elavon merchant services, "www.mypaymentsinsider.com". When I selected it, I believe I was re-directed to a phony page (In hindsight, it looked unprofessional). When I clicked on that page, a bright animated screen with the Microsoft logo appeared along with a loud alarm and voice saying something like "Your computer has been locked due to suspicious activity," and on the screen it said to call a toll-free Microsoft support number 847-773-5942. (An internet search of that number lead to a Saidou Ballenger in Itasca, IL.)
When I called the number, a man with a thick Indian accent proceeded to walk me through the steps to downloading the Ultra Viewer system-sharing app. Before completing the process I realized that he was a scammer. I asked if his name was Saidou Ballenger, he said his name is Mike. After about 10 minutes of me questioning his credentials, he hung up on me.

A man whom I converse with, identified himself as Sam Peter. This Sam Peter, informed me that he was a Microsoft technician, he could help me with this problem. He assured me that he was a legal technician. He gave me this number 1 531-201-9719. He asked me the serial number of my computer which I gave to him and he told me his work had to be approved by his supervisor by the name, Mike Wilson. Mike Wilson informed me he was the supervisor.
Their voice dialect sound like Jamaicans. Sam Peter worked on my computer for an hour. Then, he said I had to pay him $129.00. I refused to pay. He said, you pay because it took me an hour to fix, I told him microsoft technician help, was fee. Alright then, he said. Then everything went black on my computer. I desperately needed my computer, which enable me receive my unemployment compensation and make contact with my doctor for my future surgeries.
I was writing because they are using Microsoft software corporation name, as a way to hack people. I have to take my computer to the shop, hat, I cannot afford. He put Microsoft corporation on my computer's black screen and windows 32. My computer is a windows 10.

When I called they wanted me to give them access to my computer so that they could remove a file. I talked to Aaron Fox badge number CPX1005. Phone number 202 852 2804.
I did not give them access to the computer and do not intend to pay the bill. Should I do something more?
