Scam. Pretending to be from Microsoft support. I received a call from 989-696-1012 and 989-729-6833 earlier today from accented male saying from 'Microsoft'. (gotten this call ~ 8 times over last year) I talked longer with him this time and to try to win my trust, he provided this Microsoft license security ID number ... supposedly from my computer... 00C04FD7D062. Q & A on Microsoft site about scam calls also warned they are providing this number which is apparently a number common to all comuputers. I also found another site by searching on 00C04FD7D062 and it was very helpful by explaining this scam in detail .... 'They will then ask you to execute the command “assoc” in a DOS prompt, and then ask you if your Consumer License ID is 888DCA60-FC0A-11CF-8F0F-00C04FD7D062. This is actually the CLSID for the ‘ZFSendToTarget’ file extension.' Here is link to see entire scam https://www.securelist.com/en/blog/208193750/ ... s?replyto=76189
