(828) 705-1277 Robo call recorded 1 March 2018 ("...remove your computer from Internet, take it to Microsoft Service or call [our bogus] Microsoft online technician..." HA!) SCAM Caller ID: "Maiden NC"

Another poorly worded robo call just dripping with low class, non standard, India English (that screams scam!) with a poor attempt to get you to call their phone number, representing it as an "online Microsoft technician", who will attempt to get you to let them connect to your computer over the Internet so they can steal your identity, bank account, and anything you haven't secured using industry "best practice" recommendations. If you read the transcript, below, I'm sure you'll see what I mean. They have trouble writing a simple, cogent sentence, like you would expect from someone in the Shudra caste.

Their call insults our intelligence on many levels, including their "shotgun" approach to making mass phone calls, hoping to find a few people who are low on computer skills (and therefor, likely to be scammed) and their total disregard of the Do Not Call regulations certainly tells us a lot about their business ethic, doesn't it?

Following is a transcript of the partial voicemail they left when I was not available to take their insulting, automated, intrusive and unwanted robo call:

[female voice:] "...your Microsoft, in-built, firewall security, we strongly recommend you do not do any online banking, in shopping, on your computer, until it not get fixed, to prevent further issues on your computer. We suggest, you please, disconnect your computer from internet and take your computer to nearby Microsoft Service store. Or, to talk to Microsoft online technician, please press 9. Also, if you want to call back later, dial 1-888-611-0889. Thank you."
