Microsoft
Phone Scam Charged $99 Then Two Further Drafts

The first one happened on 1/28 for $99.00, and the other two on 2/17 for $104.00 and $308.00. The first call came from the phone number 661-748-0240, saying that they needed to install Microsoft on my computer and the cost would be $99, which they charged to my checking account. The last occurred when they called and said they were refunding my money. I asked why, and they said that it was not working and they would refund my money through a Western Union draft.

When I checked my account later, I discovered that they had charged my account through Western Union for two drafts of $104 and $308. When I called the number they gave me, I was told by Western Union that they had already transferred the money to Virginia and India. They then connected me with the Fraud Division. I talked to the Western Union Fraud Division today, and they told me to file a report with you.
