    I keep getting phone calls from a company telling me my laptop is infected with a virus,even though im running McAfee internet security.They say my motherboard and harddrive is infected and they can show me how to sort it out.Is this a scam?

    They say they are Microsoft accredited but i do not trust unsolicited phone calls.Has anyone been in contact with this company and are they genuine?
