8 yearsI received a call from someone purporting to be from the Microsoft support team. They insisted that there was a security concern on my device and requested remote access. Definitely sounds dodgy to me!Microsoft10 yearsI got a call from someone calling himself Barry Allen, but he spoke with an asian accent and claimed to be from some tech support. He told me he was ringin' to see if my computer had some sort of insecure software slowing it down. When I asked if there’d be any cost, he said no charges if the issue was small or if my computer was fine. Pretty suspicious if you ask me.Barry Allen10 yearsOn 19/5/2016, some bloke claiming to be from a tech team in India called up saying my Windows PC had corrupted files and they needed access to fix it.
