Some scammers call and claim to be computer techs associated with well-known companies like Microsoft or Apple. Other scammers send pop-up messages that warn about computer problems. They say they’ve detected viruses or other malware on your computer. They claim to be “tech support” and will ask you to give them remote access to your computer. Eventually, they’ll diagnose a non-existent problem and ask you to pay for unnecessary – or even harmful – services.
If you get an unexpected pop-up, call, spam email or other urgent message about problems with your computer, stop. Don’t click on any links, don’t give control of your computer and don’t send any money.

HACK WARNING: If you get a message on messenger with a Youtube clip Do NOT open the clip as this will then set a trigger to send the same message to all on your friends list. If you have opened the clip you need to change your password. didn't open utube clip. Once you've changed your password all will be fine

DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO TAKE REMOTE CONTROL OF YOUR COMPUTER - EVER !

Phoney Microsoft Engineer
... You may receive a telephone call from someone claiming to be calling on behalf of Microsoft security. The person will explain that they know you have serious errors on your computer and they need to fix them now before it's too late. They guide you into your computers' event log where you will see lots of little red crosses. (All computers generate these logs and the errors are normal and nothing to worry about).
Once you are convinced you have a problem, the person will then explain that their engineer will fix these errors. The price is around £97 for doing so. If you agree, they will get you to download a program which gives them access to your computer. They then simply delete the log, therefore removing the erros, after you have paid of course. If you don't agree, they will call you constantly.
1. They do not work for Microsoft 2. They cannot see you have errors until you give them access to your computer 3. They are fixing nothing at all 4. They are breaking numerous laws and committing serious fraud on a large scale
How to deal with them When they call, let them explain who they are. Then tell them that your local police station have lent you some recording equipment and you are recording this conversation. At that point, they will either hang up or tell you they cannot proceed due to a technical error. needless to say, you shouldn't hear from them again.
