Beware: Tech Support Scams Run Rampant
Online tech support scams are on the rise, and their tactics to look legitimate are better than ever. We want our Kerr Consulting clients to be informed so they aren't the target of expensive and fake anti-virus and malware protection services.
Scammers mimic Apple and Windows operating system prompts during internet browsing sessions to trick computer users into thinking their machines are infected with malware. After calling the support number on the fake system message, users then get pressured into unnecessary anti-virus software and services. Learn more about these types of scams and how to protect yourself in this article from Consumer Reports.
