Are you aware of how tech scams work?
Essentially, a scammer will either call you, e-mail you, or have a pop-up on a website to convince you that there’s an issue with your system. They try to gain access by having you give them access to your system, then attempt to either:
1. Steal your information
and/or
2. Hold your data hostage by encrypting your data. You end up paying them to release your data in which they may or may not even do.
Understand that Microsoft will NEVER call you to tell you that your system has a virus, or that “Windows expired”. If you have a question regarding a phone call or potential scam, call the experts at 734-838-9700. Canton Computers is here to help guide you in the right direction!
