Apparemment, des appelants prétendent être du support Microsoft et vous avertissent d'un prétendu piratage. Cette technique repose sur l'usurpation d'identité et le recours à un ton urgent pour obtenir des accès ou des informations personnelles. Ne donnez jamais de mot de passe, de numéro de sécurité sociale ou de code d'authentification à un interlocuteur non vérifié. Vérifiez toujours l'authenticité en appelant le numéro officiel trouvé sur le site du fabricant, jamais celui fourni lors de l'appel. Utilisez un bloqueur d'appels ou inscrivez le numéro sur la liste rouge. En cas de doute, signalez l'incident aux autorités compétentes et surveillez vos comptes pour toute activité suspecte.
