Beware of "Microsoft tech support" scam

September 13, 2014  /  Amy Poturnicki

Beware of "Microsoft tech support" scam that can result in theft of personal information.
If you receive a phone call from someone claiming to be from "Microsoft tech support" BEWARE. In a recent case the scammer asked for remote access to the computer to fix a malicious malware problem.  The person claimed that if he didn't fix the problem, the computer would crash.  For more information on this scam and how you can protect yourself, you can follow this LINK to the Microsoft website.
