• I've just been pretty stupid to fall for this scam that I can do to cancel it

  Yesterday I got a call, the Indian person on the line, told me it was a visit of courtesy from microsoft and was offered for free, I asked again if this was the case and he assured me it is, he says, his name was Daniel.

  I am in my seventies and that I recently had problems with my P.C.I fell for his line, I have pretty basic computer knowledge.
  He showed me on my computer that I got a lot of mail something or other which in turn could contain viruses, I said that I do not understand that, as I had Macafee protection and previously Norton he told me that two of them were incompatible with my p C is windows 7

  At the end of the long conversation, he said he could offer me 2 years of technical protection at a price of £139,98
  V.A.T. a total of £158,96 and like the more fool I feel now that I paid with my master card.

  He said someone would ring me back today and he did, he just asked me if my computer was working ok promised to send another mail electronic, but that never happened so far.
  I was already starting to be pretty worried I could have fallen for a clever scam, yesterday they sent me a confirmation of billing,
  He said that all the phone calls for technical support were free on 0844 2720796 of course that I printed of this

  Gave me this web site address www.onlinetechmate.com.  I just looked on the website and the comments at the end of the wiser and more knowledgeable people on P.Cs how they were taken about this type of scam

  Please can you help me maybe, I now feel physically ill, I do all my banking online and transfers and often buy online they claim to be trained Microsoft technicians - what can I do to stop payment or anything at all I can do to get me out of trouble, I think I have left me to please advise me and help me if you can thanks

  You should call your credit card company and let them know about this fraud.  They can cancel the charge for you.  Also, you need to assign you a new number of credit card and cancel the old.

  If this individual "Daniel" has been authorized to have access online to your computer, you have no way of knowing what information he may have gotten, and what are the settings he could change.  You should contact any financial institution you deal with and let them know that your account has been compromised.

  You must change your passwords online for the financial institutions, or companies where you do shopping online, using a known clean computer.  Do not access these accounts of the infected computer until it has been restructured and the operating system reinstalled.

• I tried to download the new version, but my security asked me if I really wanted to download from an unknown source. If I was about to be scammed, or why firefox is not recognized by my security system?

  I received an email saying it was the reporter that I was using an outdated version, and I wanted to download the new version of firefox. I clicked on download now. I am running windows 7, if I get a backup it box. I save it. so I open run it. When I click Run, I received a message asking if I want to run something from an unknown source... then I hit Cancel.

  I don't think that Mozilla will send e-mail to its users and ask them to update to Firefox. I have never received such and I have been using Firefox from the day that it was released. Users will have to use its built-in or from its Web site update. This email is probably a scam. You must remove it immediately.

• I gave remote access to a scam.  What should I do?

  I was on my computer when I got a message saying that my computer has a virus.  I couldn't use the mouse, or close the session.  My system froze.  I was told to call the number on the screen.  When I did I gave them remote access.  Pretty quickly, I knew it was a scam but they dial for a few minutes.  Should I be worried?  The scam was supported IT Aspire.

  Completely erase your hard drive and he re-partition. Reinstall a new copy of OS X. change all of your passwords. Report it to your banks and credit card companies. You can just for the re - issue new credit cards.

  A good rule to follow: If you don't know what is on the other end of a web link, then don't click it. There is no real viruses affecting a Mac, as update you OS X means that you should go to El Capitan to protect against the latest RansomWare - KeRanger.

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty of pop-ups in browser that support Safari.

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

• I have been scammed by Mindbrix last week. Is it possible that they could have downloaded Malware in my Macbook Pro? The computer works fine now, but should I run a kind of diagnosis or that someone check it out?

  I have been scammed by Mindbrix last week, and this community let me know... Thank you! Is it possible that they could have installed some sort of malicious software on my Macbook Pro X or am I protected? My computer works normally at this stage.

  Is it possible that they could have installed some sort of malicious software on my Macbook Pro X or am I protected?

  If you don't give them access to your computer or download something on their request, you should be fine. If you allow them access or downloaded something, you must erase and reformat your hard drive, then restore your computer from a backup taken before when you allowed them access. Change your passwords and other critical information also. Not sure what software have been installed. If necessary, contact your bank to make opposition and cancel your credit card.

• My dad fell for a scam of pop up allowing access to its iMac... What should I do now?

  My old father just bought a new iMac 3 weeks after the death of his previous mac of 10 years ago.  He is not very computer and had a time with the learning curve.

  Yesterday, while online, he fell for one of those notices of popups indicating that his computer was 'at risk' - he called the phone # & handed her credit card information...  Immediately, they have had access, has taken control of his computer and downloaded something while he was on the phone with him.  That scared him and he stopped.

  He called the credit card company to refuse the $50 fee that had been immediately posted on his account.  I fear however, that some sort of malicious software have been installed and maybe they have access to his personal information and passwords, etc.  He doesn't know who he talked to, or what has been downloaded...

  What needs to be done to identify and remove what has been installed?  I don't want him being a victim of identity theft.

  Thanks for your suggestions.

  First of all, have the card cancelled and have the Bank to launch a new. Change all passwords. Tell him that never to do that again.

• SCAM: Popup 'Apple security warning' in Safari

  There is an online scam targeting OSX users via a popup of Safari:

  Apple security warning *.

  
  Browser blocked for security reasons.

  Apple has detected that a * virus has infected your system and trying to steal images, data and social network passwords. It is a serious problem of piracy. Remedy immediately as soon as possible. ERROR CODE: QFR50000RT11C Tell this code error for the customer service representative.

  Your incoming remote connections are currently open.

  CALL IMMEDIATELY THE APPLE SECURITY AND DATA PROTECTION TEAM AT 1-866-352-8353 (TOLL-FREE).

  Therefore, we are performing additional security checks to verify the source of the attack and stopped all resources of your system in order to prevent any further damage to your system and information.

  Please ensure that you do not restart your computer to avoid any loss of data and system. Generated by the automatic warning system. Ignoring will cause permanent damage to the system.

  Do NOT call this number, it's a scam.

  The popup itself exceeds the size of the screen, so that the 'Cancel' button is unclickable, but even dismissing it with other methods (like ESC) make it appear again.  You must quit Safari and restart while now Shift to prevent bad page load again.  For reference, the URL was "https://storage.googleapis.com/systemconfigirationrequiredduetomjaorissues/mac/i ndex.html" but please do not visit!

  I had a friend who fell for her, and she gave these people $ 300 to "solve" the problem.  More painful, she followed the instructions of granting them access to his computer remotely.  Upon learning this, I got it to restore all of the backup system (TYMV Time Machine!) and she is trying to change all his passwords.

  The money went to a China-based payment processing intermediate, and scammers sent him to DocuSign to "confirm the work has been accomplished."  I guess that these measures are taken to make it difficult to recover the funds, even if his credit card company have indicated that they would probably reverse charge.

  The good news is that I've just updated to the last Safari (9.0.2), and now the popup may be rejected:

  

  I honestly don't know if this was something has changed in Safari, or if the code was different; This time, he started to READ THE MESSAGE aloud in a loop, I so was very happy to be able to reject.

  The same scam appeared on my iMac. And looking over 2500 views on this page, I suspect that many other people had the same thing happen to them. I was wondering if Apple, which has labor behind them, can do something. Hope that at least they have air in it.
