The pages we could link to the pop-up are no longer up, but there is no doubt that the schemers could set up new pages. They could also modify the pop-up itself and present different scams via the same pages. They are usually referred to as tech-support scams because their creators are trying to convince the targeted users that it is the tech-support teams of legitimate companies that are trying to contact them. In our case, the schemers are trying to represent themselves as the Microsoft team, and they are urging to call +1-888-991-0311. Even if this is a toll-free number, you must think twice before you call. Whenever you are introduced to an unfamiliar number, you must cross-check it online.
