I lost a draft email on my iPhone and attempted to contact Microsoft to recover it. Online I found the supposed customer support number listed above. I called, and the first call was dropped. The next time I called, the scammer had me install an app, which I deleted from my phone as soon as I realized this all sounded fishy. The app was some control business app, which I now see has about 200+ reviews stating it is a scam. I gave out no info other than my involved email address. Am I safe since I installed the app? Is there any way that the scammers can get anything else from me? Ironically, he claimed the reason the draft email was lost was that I had been hacked last Monday. Very clever, they are as they prey on people frantically trying to correct a computer problem.

I received a screen that popped up on my computer on Feb 23 stating from microsoft do not turn off your computer and to call them. I did call them & they said my computer was compromised and that it would cost $199.00 to fix it. I have not paid them & called Best Buy, they scrubbed my computer & stated this type of thing is happening nationwide.

February 22nd, 2025 4:51pm at Sugar Land, TX - Received a call from an automated service using 888-785-9405. They claimed to be Microsoft security, calling about a login from Lincoln, Nebraska and flagged as suspicious activity. I did not proceed to speak with anyone and hung up the call. They were almost certainly a scam of some sort.

I was notified by email that I had purchased a subscription on February 5th at 8:15 am. The email came to me but had the email address to [email protected]. The email stated from Microsoft to [email protected], but came to me. ** *** ** **** ** ******* ******* *** ** **** **** ** ****** I called the phone number given for cancellation but wanted to know how the email was address this way. the email gave no pricing information. The caller could not explain what was purchased and told me to log into my computer to cancel. I explained that I was not at my computer I was driving. He asked me when will I be at my computer. I stated that why do I have to logged into my computer and to cancel the order or email me the instructions how to cancel. He hung up on me and then blocked my number.

This is second attempt. First they said I authorized payment from my bank. I immediately call the bank. Bank said no money was paid out. Now today I got notice it was being taken out of my husbands PayPal account. I don’t want to call the phone number listed. My husband is 83 and I am 78. I’m afraid if I call the number they might try to scam us in another way

I knew my Microsoft subscription was up for renewal. I started receiving reminders. I responded to it and paid. Then I received more reminders and I wondered why they did not acknowledge I paid. That's when I looked at my Microsoft 365 account subscription and saw that no payment was there. I called the number on my receipt and it is disconnected. I realized it was a scam.

Posing as a no-reply Microsoft tech, email and phone contact involved me in efforts to cancel a $371 fee for an upgrade to a Microsoft account on my laptop that I did not need. They used a ScamPulse.com portal to activate the refund from a ScamPulse.com account, but they manipulated the refund to look like $6000 had been mistakenly placed into my checking account. I hung up on the scammers and discovered that $6000 had been transferred from my savings account to my checking account by someone other than me. Note: No one other than me has rightful access to my account. A receipt emailed to me stated that $6000 had been deposited into my checking account by First National Bank. No such deposit was received by my bank. I had my bank deactivate my accounts and open new ones with online banking blocked. I have reset passwords to various accounts. My banker speculates that imposters will notify me with a request for me to return $6000 that I never received. A day after the scam, I did receive a mysterious message through the cloud - which I never do - and did not open it.

I received a phishing email that looks like Microsoft with its branding. However, I typically will reach out to the actual company by searching my own contact info. However, I've tried calling Microsoft at 3 different numbers and they all hang up on me when I simply ask who can I speak with to report fraud. This is a phishing scam and I want to ensure no one calls that number (618) and falls victim.

The email read:

Your order is confirmed and now being processed. ??

If you need help or updates, we’re here to assist! ??

Thanks for choosing us—we’re grateful for your business!

Order confirmed on September 18th, 2024.

I was on Verbo and computer started making loud sound and saying to call this number, which was Microsoft as I was being hacked. They had me log into program and started downloading all my files. They wanted me to log into my bank account, but i did on my phone. A supervisor came on tryingvto persuade me to log into bank account to see if hackers had taken money. They hung up and called back on 8135756592. I told them they were hackers and they hung up.

I report these pages to the Better Business Bureau as when I do so, they get removed. When I report to Microsoft, the ticket is closed and the fake antivirus pages remains up and running. Here is the latest fake antivirus site hosted by Microsoft.

Please Investigate, Thank you.

I looked up a phone number for Microsoft due to a virus message on my computer. They impersonated Microsoft, made fake transactions on my bank accounts and had me withdraw $9500 and deposit in a Bitcoin ATM. They then took another $6,000 out of my accounts.

Norton antivirus notifications popped up on my father's computer with a number to call. My father called the number and then gave access to his computer. The scammer then occupied my father's time by asking personal questions while he searched through his computer and implanted numerous viruses and stole information.

Microsoft pop up claimed bank account was hacked and to call the fraud department. He called the number and a woman claimed to be the fraud department of his bank First Fed. She said that they were trying to get 16,500 out to send to China for pornography and that he needed to get the money out of the bank because it was showing as pending. Told him that they will ask questions for that large of amount and just tell them it's for a remodel or medical bills.

He got out the money and she said now it looks like they are trying to get 23,000.00 more. She also said not to say anything to the bank because they are not the fraud department, and it would just muddle the waters. So, he got out the 23,000.00 and this time told them that his daughter was opening a business. She said a guy named Alex would show up at his house to get the money and not to worry that his money was safe and he would get it all back Monday morning. A guy showed up wearing a surgical mask. He did not park near the house he parked somewhere else and walked in because no car was seen. She continued to call back 12 times on Monday. Several times Tuesday and today tried a few times to where he finally answered and told her that she ruined his life and got all his money. She hung up

Grandmother clicked on something on Facebook, the computer "locked up" with a still image of a Windows Security picture and a number to call to "unlock her computer". She called the listed number and told someone on the phone that her computer locked up. The scammer (who said they were from Microsoft) said to not turn off her computer, and at that point she realized it was a scammer and hung up. Restarting the PC seemed to do the trick.
