Product: HP laptop
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
I just got a telephone call from someone claiming to be with HP support. The caller ID on my telephone showed the caller as unknown. The man claimed that HP has determined that I have gotten a virus in my laptop via social media.

Has anybody gotten such calls? I am fairly sure it's a scam but do want to double-check. I asked the man on the phone to give me a call back number in case we got cut off. The number he gave me was 888 - 883 - 6944.

Thanks
