    Am I being scammed by Spectrum and or Microsoft?


    I have Posted already asking for help.
    Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 will not let me SEND.
    Spectrum says, not my problem after a decade of running both on their ISP offering.
    They say that Outlook has been compromised!
    All of a sudden, it doesn't work and they do not know why.
    They then refer me to Microsoft and give me the number for HELP.
    I call and Microsoft says Windows-7 Pro must be upgraded to Windows-10 or they will not help me.
    They also say that Outlook 2007 must be upgraded or they will not help me.
    They say it will take 45 to 60 minutes and it appears that there will be a charge!

    DOES THIS SOUND RIGHT?

    Does this mean I have to go to Google GMail and if so is there a way to transfer all of my Outlook files to GMail?

    I do appreciate any feedback.

    What do you mean, "don't use Outlook"?

    Since this started, I've used it every day to Receive messages.

    I just completed a Clone of the C: Drive Outlook is installed on.

    I am at a loss regarding a Bump!

    Best regards,

    Maybe your ISP has secretly started using Application Specific Passwords
