I got the call supposedly from Windows also. The same day I received an email stating that my BankAmerica account was temporarily suspended because someone was trying to log in too many times incorrectly. I was asked to follow their link and give them my correct info. Instead I called BankAmerica and they said to forward it to their fraud dept. They get that a lot...my first clue was a misspelled word. And of course, they would never ask for that kind of information in an email. No correct card number, etc. I wonder how many unsuspecting people do get taken in by this stuff???
