I recently received a call from Danniel from R&G Windows Support; phone #: 1-226-777-0091. They said they had been getting several error messages from my computer and that they needed to get access to it. That morning, I noticed that Windows Updates were

looping on update 16. I turned off the computer, turned it back on and downloaded the updates manually, all was well; I thought. Anyway, I was convinced that we had problems and they took command and provided us with service and downloaded Microsoft Security

Essentials, we paid over $300. with the credit card. Were we scammed? Nyta.
