Tech Support scams

09 May 2013 - 11:18 AM

We are seeing more and more of this.
Out of the blue you receive a phone call from a Tech Support Center.
These Support Centers are no more than a scam to steal money from you or worse.

They will want to connect remotely to your computer and have you open Windows Event Viewer. Just tell them to place you on the "do-not-call list" and hangup.
