Another scam that has been around for a while is some group in (India?) posing as Microsoft Support, calls to inform you that your computer (desktop, laptop, 2-in-1 or tablet) is causing network problems and they would like to fix it for you (for a price of course).
I actually had one such call at the same time that I was on the phone with the real Microsoft Support. Because I was using the Partner ACS system phone in my bedroom, I didn't know who the second caller was, so, I flash hooked the first call to speak to the new caller.
The caller hung up pretty quickly when I told them that I was on the phone with Microsoft.
Others have come up with other retorts to this particular caller. Asking: "Which one of my computers are you talking about?" or saying "I have only 'Apple' or 'Samsung' devices" will bring a rapid end to the call.
