Hey everybody, tonight I come to you with a warning...
Yesterday I was phoned by some "concerned worker" from a global call center, letting me know that they have detected that my pc is downloading very dangerous unwanted data (bear in mind that my pc wasn't even connected to the Internet at that stage). He then instructed me to open up my windows logs to show me these "errors" (all they were was programs closing uxpectedly or running out of memory etc really not dangerous).
He then tried to get me to visit his site by typing the address in run and to download some of his "cleaning software" for free! Which is actually remote access software. Well while he was instructing me to do this, I researched the site and found other complaints about it. That is when I ended the call.
Now all of you reading this should realize it is a scam,but for those who aren't technically inclined it might have worked, so please be aware and let people know about this. I am trying to find ways to stop this, I'll get back to you on that. The sites name is Fix123.org, DO NOT download anything from them!!!
I hoped this helped you
TheStranger out.
