Hello:
What is y3.online.sec.update and why/who is this trying to call me/message me via my skype?
Normally if there is an official skype security update/fix it is automatic when I log in so is this some type of phishing scam? I blocked the contact.
Thanks for your help.

This account is now blocked and will not bother other users.
In the future just block such accounts who claim to be from Skype or try to sell some software updates.
Accounts can be reported also to customer service: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA1170/How-can-I-
