Beware of this Hacking Scam

I got this from C-Net

Beware Scam computer techs

These perpetrators are making calls to people’s homes disguising themselves as computer tech support from a well-known company, claiming you may be infected by a computer virus. They ultimately want you to give them access to your computer to fix the issue. And once they have access, who knows what will get compromised?

I have had a friend who is tech savvy who did get one of these calls, and she asked what I.P. address they have listed.  The scammers then hung up. However, surprisingly, this is not only happening quite frequently, but also happening across the globe.

The good thing is that unless you give these scammers access to your computer, your system won’t get compromised, at least not from these people.

So, please beware folks!
