Complaint Review: Microsoft Technical (allegedly)

Woman with heavy oriental accent phoned me, claiming to be from Microsoft Technical Services, telling me my computer has hundreds of defects. She talked me into making entries on my computer that eventually gave her control over my computer (clicking Control with Windows key and typing in some entries). I fell for the hypothesis that she was really with Microsoft. When I woouldn't buy their software to cure my alleged problems, she turned me over to Nick. Nick had a heavy oriental accent. I though well maybe Microsoft is hiring a lot of folks from the east.

I stil woudn't buy the software, since my computer hadn't given me a bit of trouble before their call. Nick turned me over to Sam who also had a heavy oriental accent. I still wouldn't buy. After hanging up, I found I couldn't access the control panel. I couodn't even turn my computer off. Sliding along the right border no longer brings out the option icons

The purpose of this is to try to find whether 347 305 0077 is really Microsoft, and to warn others against falling for this scam.
