VerifiedHi,
No support company or Microsoft would ever call you for any computer support. When you need support, you would call them first. This is a scam mostly in order to get your money. You can see more details at

I am very happy with my very fast response. Eric is very knowledgeable in the subject area. Thank you!
Austin, TX
Hi John, Thank you for your expertise and, more important, for your kindness because they make me, almost, look forward to my next computer problem. After the next problem comes, I'll be delighted to correspond again with you. I'm told that I excel at programing. But system administration has never been one of my talents. So it's great to have an expert to rely on when the computer decides to stump me. God bless, Bill
