Microsoft Technology Adoption Program

Hi there,

I've been called by someone claiming to be a Microsoft representative. The call was passed to me via a switchboard. The person claimed he wanted to have a half hour discussion regarding a "Microsoft TAP program". I asked for email verification and left the call.

Since then an email has arrived in my spam folder from ******@microsoftpartnerresponse.com and the TAP recruitment desk.

I do not feel comfortable discussing information over the phone - particularly when the call was passed to me via a switchboard. I will not be following through with the discussion however I am interested if this is some kind of scam or not? Does this TAP exist? And has anyone had similar experiences?

As far as I am aware, Microsoft does not make home calls...

Thanks,

Chris

    There is such a program and it is via invitation only.

    However, if you don't have a business relationship, such as a volume license purchaser or Azure services then I'd be warry.

    Hello Chris_1337

    Thank you for participating in the Microsoft Community, I am Skypper G. I am an independent advisor, let me help you with this.

    The TAP exists however you would need be member of this program previously through an Enterprise commitment with a Microsoft Account Manager.

    For your scenario it looks more like an Scam phone.
