System Notice(Skype)

[shyGriff]

so
i keep getting random skype calls from "system notice" and "online notice perform system maintenece" and names like that, but i don't answer them. i've been blocking them, but whenever i do, another one calls me. so i was looking at my skype history, and i saw this:

so those are two of the people who have been calling me, but THEN THERE'S THIS.

....
i'm guessing this was another system notice guy but i'm kind of scared now

who else gets these calls?

It might be that new virus thing for Skype

I haven't gotten calls like this lately, probably because I haven't been on skype often. I'll turn it on and see If I get these calls.

It might be that new virus thing for Skype

Maybe, maybe, but the one we have in the moment only comes through IM. Maybe this is some sort of adavanced form of it?

Probably a phishing scam, with a name like that answering it would probably ask you to 'verify your account' or some stupid stuff

It's a virus called Palladium. It has you go to a website which brings up a fake antivirus notification, which asks you to download it's "antivirus", of course the antivirus itself is that virus, which will take over your computer and try to force you to give it your credit card  number. Best you simply
block the number
