888-446-9992

I got a computer alert that my security was in danger and to call Verizon at this number.  I am a verizoN user.  I called the number.  It is NOT Verizon!

Received the same message through a pop up window on my iPad, except I'm a Time Warner customer and TW was mentioned in the alert. Scam with a capital S.

I got an alert on my computer to call Microsoft ... It was not Microsoft !

I reeceived an Alert posting that locked up my computer, noting that I had a serious (Adware) problem. It was a 3-times repeated (continuous) message stating that I should not turn off computer or take any other action than to call  the above number. They claimed to be a Microsoft certified company. They gave a callback number for further assistance. They gave estimated service costs. They tied my computer up for about six hours. Computer seemed to work somewhat better than it was before the "service."  A payment card was used and my statement was debited. The notation of payment noted another phone number. All phone numbers were non-identifiable, claiming to be located in Delray, FL. I was scammed!

I received a very noisy warning that I had malware on my laptop. I was instructed to call this number 888-446-9992 to get assistance from Microsoft. It is a big fat scam. I was able to remove the malware with my web root virus software.

Got a message on on PC while surfing with Chrome.  It is fake. DO NOT CALL THEM.  Either right click and shutdown your Browser or Reboot your PC.  DON'T CLICK the message...

My screen popped up a message saying my computer was in bad trouble and to call the 8884469992 number and to not shut down or try to do anything or everything would be lost. I called and bottom line they wanted me to pay $299. When I said I couldn't afford that it went to $279. And then down to $159. That's when I started thinking SCAM. When I said no to the payment the guy told me to just throw my computer away. Then he got mad and was scolding me. I hung up and rebooted and my computer seems fine now. Watch out everybody.

My screen popped a message stating "Serious security threats have been detected on your computer. Your personal photos, credit card information and passwords maybe compromised..." I called the number and the agent started asking question which appeared to be irrevelant to the message.  I asked which Tech Support Team I was talking to, he said Microsoft, I then knew it was a scam as I have an Apple.

Hanged up the phone immediately as soon as you hear maximum care experts they are scammers they will take your card information and act like there's something wrong with your computer when they're really cute and viruses on it
