Number 8338572999 is a scam number Asian Male uses Skype to enter and block your computer saying on the block it has been blocked by Microsoft, He is very good, using Microsoft logs . etc, He access your computer with a Microsoft code which I am sure he secured from Microsoft, all the time bragging how well you maintained your computer, Then he puts up some Fake crap on the screen saying I HAVE 4800 VIRUS IN MY COMPUTER am sure he has a program he is running, no one can type that fast, tells me he will clean up all the computer, and all other devices on the line for $ 249.00, I tell him I do not have $ 249, talk him all the way down to $ 100.00 then I hang up. At this time he puts up a credit card app to send money on the screen.Microsoft sometimes blocks an account if there is suspicious activity on the account but they will send you a code to your telephone. He is very good and no telling how many he has Scammed, I feel like he is a Microsoft employee or a former employee! but one thing for sure he is a liar and a thief. He listed himself as being on Microsoft team six. As I said he had everything to show himself as Microsoft, When he blocked the computer it said it was blocked by Microsoft, another lie, but he locks the computer up SO YOU HAVE TO CALL HIM.
