Caller identified himself (in thick Indian accent) as a Microsoft Employee ID Number mw236#41
and stated that my system had been sending Microsoft error messages. Which is improbable because I know I turned off error reporting for my computer. He had me go in to the "dcomcnfg" menu to show me the errors and had me attempt to delete some of them. When I couldn't delete them he wanted me to connect to his "...secure server so I can do it for you while you watch..." When I said that I wouldn't and I was going to contact Microsoft directly to resolve the issues he stated that I shouldn't because Microsoft had moved its service department to New York and Redmond couldn't help me. He doesn't know I'm from that area and have a couple friends on the tech team. Ha Ha Ha!! Dumbass!
