Scamming - Fraud
The "Subscription from Microsoft Account has been renewed" email below asking recipients to call telephone number +1 (321) 985-3959 is a scam. The scam is being sent by online scammers who are attempting to trick their potential victims into contacting them. Once contacted, the scammers will attempt to trick their potential victims into giving them their personal and financial information. Once the stolen information is received, the scammers will use it fraudulently.

They called me and said membership expiring and to log into computer,hit the Microsoft key and the "R" key on my keyboard at the same time (which took me to the Run screen on my computer), then enter this web address: www.microsoftpcsupport.com, that one did not work so he transferred me to his "supervisor", who told me to enter this web address:www.microsoftpcsupport.com. While I was typing this address into my run page, I decided to look the web addresses up online and they both came back as invalid web address or couldn't be found. I called him out on being a scam artist, shamed him and told him I'd call the police and hung up.
