Microsoft alerts that the BazaCall attack starts with malicious emails that tricks the users into calling the fake call center. Claiming that a demo service is ending and the user will be charged for a premium service. If the user takes the bait, they will talk to a real person at the fake center and provide step-by-step instructions on how to download the malware into their devices. After the attacker gets direct access, they will perform many procedures, making the systems and devices a high security risk for ransomware attacks.. https://cybersecuritynews.com/beware-phone-call-centers-trick-windows-users-to-install-malware/
