This will be done in several different steps. Their next step is to try to convince you that your computer is infected. Lets pretend for a while that you have received the phone call, and you are playing along with the whole idea that your computer is infected. Luckily I was able to get hold of information such as their internal IP addresses, the PayPal accounts used to wire money and the numbers they are calling from. The goal was to find out who they were and exactly what the scam was.

At the same time I had my virtual machines running and was recording everything that they were doing. Well, they have called me several times, and finally Ii got fed up with this and started to play along. So if you ever get a call from Microsoft stating that there are some indications that your computer is broken or infected – please hang up! I just want to mention that there is no such department at Microsoft, and they would never call up customers offering this. If the victim agrees on this, they will ask the victim to perform certain actions, and also type certain commands, which will trick a non-experienced user that the output is actually showing that the computer is infected. They will then offer (for free) to verify if this is the case. The scam is pretty simple they pretend to be from a department within Microsoft which has received indications that your computer is infected with some malware. They have been calling a lot of people in countries such as Germany, Sweden, the UK and probably more.

Im pretty sure that most of you guys know about the recent phone scam which is circulating right now.
