  Police help Microsoft stop security help desk scam
Time: 00:00 EST/05:00 GMT | News Source: ITWorld | Posted By: Todd Richardson

Microsoft Corp. has successfully called in the help of U.K. police to stop an e-mail scam that urges users to call a special number to get help securing Windows. The number, which actually connected the caller to a real Microsoft number but charged a bit more, was disconnected Thursday around noon U.K. time. A Microsoft spokesman confirmed the Redmond, Washington, company is "working with U.K. law enforcement to investigate the e-mail scam."
