I was sure it was a scam, I never allow anyone to connect to my
computer, unless I call them.

One thing you can be sure of is when anyone calls you claiming to be
Apache, Microsoft, your ISP etc., it's a scam where they're trying to
install malware on your computer. I have had calls from "Microsoft"
about problems on my computer. Funny thing is, I run Linux. I have let
them run their line, where they tell me to click on the Start button
etc. I then play dumb and tell them I can't see a Start button... I
have a bit of fun that way, before they finally give up. ;-)
