BEWARE: Phone Scam Alert About IP Address Being Compromised

I just want to warn you about a Phone Scam going around about IP Address being compromised. When you get a message like this, please do not call the number suggested by the automated voice because it is not a legitimate Microsoft phone number. This phone number was set-up by criminals out to steal personal information from unsuspecting victims. I received this type of phone call this afternoon. I don’t answer any phone calls that I receive from my land line unless the number on the Caller ID is familiar. The good thing is the message was recorded which I converted to .MP3 format, and shared here in a video. Hopefully, this video can save many from becoming victims to these financially motivated criminals.

Please take a listen to this 1 minute and 33 seconds message that was left in my voicemail.

This video was made to protect you and someone close to you from becoming victims of this crime. Again, if you receive a phone call like this, do not believe it. Just like IRS, Microsoft will not call you for reasons described in this robocall scam.
