Fake Tech Support Charged $79 to Fix a Staged Crash

I received a call from people claiming to be from Microsoft tech support. They said my computer was about to crash because my warranty was out, and that if I did not buy the warranty today, my PC would crash. They got inside my PC and put bad things on it to deceive me into thinking it was crashing.
I paid them 79.00 to fix it. I waited 4 hours and it was still not fixed, so I called Microsoft tech support, and they had no record of my problem at all. Then I had to turn around and pay 79.00 again to the real Microsoft to fix my PC.
Here is the info I have on these persons: Peter Ferdands, Bitto Mahato, from India, email WINDOSHELPNSAVE@GMAIL.com, 1315-215-0386. Thank you.
