11 yearsAh, Windows 10 - quite the blunder, isn't it?11 yearsIs there any reliable method to eliminate those pesky pop-ups that seem to be plastered everywhere by fake advertisers?11 yearsSteer clear of making any calls to this number! And should you encounter a pop-up alert on your device, I strongly urge you to disconnect your computer and cut off your internet connection immediately-this is nothing more than a scam!11 yearsI completely concur; I’m becoming increasingly weary of this fraudulent Tam business.Tam11 yearsI recently encountered a frozen screen on Google Chrome accompanied by an automated message informing me that I, as a user of Sky Broadband, needed to call 02038050589 to address the issue. However, I quickly realized it was a scam when I performed a task manager function and scanned my computer for viruses (fortunately, there were none). It is quite disheartening to see that these scammers continue their malicious activities without being apprehended. Despite reading comments from others facing similar situations, it seems that no action has been taken to halt their schemes. It is concerning that they persist in attempting to scam innocent people.Google ChromeSky Broadband11 yearsPlease refrain from contacting the following number as it belongs to an American company known as Techdrive Inc. Their address is 6856 Williams Pond CT, Falls Church, VA 22043. If you happen to encounter a situation where you are redirected to their website while browsing and they claim that your computer contains a security breach, we strongly advise pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE promptly. Then, navigate to Task Manager to safely close your browser, thereby regaining control of your computer. In the unfortunate event that you have already made a payment to these scammers, we urge you to report the incident to the police without delay. Additionally, please provide the police with all relevant details regarding this fraudulent scam company.Techdrive IncWilliams Pond CTFalls Church11 yearsPlease refrain from calling the number as it is a fraudulent scheme. The individuals behind it attempt to access all your personal data from your computer. To ensure your safety, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete, open the task manager, and end the suspicious program. Run your antivirus software to confirm that your system is secure. These scammers are engaging in criminal activities, so do not be fooled. If you encounter them, please report their actions immediately.11 yearsI encountered a frightening pop-up message on my screen, similar to what others have reported. Accompanied by an American female voice, the message urged me (a Virgin user from Swansea) to immediately call a specified number. I dialed the number and spoke to a woman from the Far East who was extremely difficult to understand due to the loud background noise. At first glance, it appeared that the call was toll-free, but that was not the case for the message itself. Fortunately, only my Google screen was affected, not my entire computer which contains important data for my firm. I grew suspicious and quickly ended the conversation with the Far Eastern woman. Upon checking the phone number afterwards, I realized it was indeed a scam.VirginSwanseaFar EastGoogle11 yearsI recently dialed this phone number and suddenly a large window appeared on my screen, preventing me from accessing my computer or using the keyboard. The person who responded claimed to be a technician from Windows technical support. Feeling anxious, I asked her how I could verify her legitimacy as a Windows support technician. She informed me that she needed to access my computer in order to diagnose the issue. This only intensified my fear when a screen prompt appeared, requesting permission for them to access my computer. In response, I asked her to call me back in two hours and swiftly closed all the windows on my computer. Strangely enough, I was able to regain access to my computer and keyboard. This infuriated me greatly, and if she calls again after two hours, I will strongly express my anger and frustration towards her.11 yearsUnable to access my computer, I resorted to seeking assistance on my phone. After inputting the number into Google, I came across your service offering a thorough scan with McAfee.GoogleMcAfee11 yearsSince this is a newly purchased computer, there must have been some additional downloads that caused this issue to occur. I promptly blocked the website to prevent any further problems.11 yearsI had a similar experience. I ended it using the task manager and then conducted a full scan, which showed no issues.11 yearsEnsure you give this article a read: "Microsoft Phone Scam: Stay Alert and Don't Fall Victim!" It contains valuable information on how to protect yourself and avoid being targeted by phone scammers. It's important to stay vigilant and be aware of the tactics they use. Take the time to educate yourself and stay safe!Microsoft11 yearsI experienced a similar situation today: a popup appeared on my screen displaying an urgent message that I couldn't close. I called the provided number, and a foreign gentleman from a technical support company answered. As I couldn't understand him clearly, I ended the call and eventually managed to close the popup message. I've conducted a virus check which came out clean. Hopefully, this will be the end of it and you can find a way to stop these issues.11 yearsBeware, as this is a fraudulent act. They will request remote access to your computer under the guise of addressing an issue, but what they actually display is a façade to conceal their true activities in the background. Afterwards, they will demand an online payment from you and may even convince you to input your payment information for supposed enhanced security measures. To win your trust, they audaciously requested my undivided attention and warned against falling for scams like theirs. For more information and to stay informed, visit the website www.actionfraud.police.uk and read the alert published on 15 January 2015. Under no circumstances should you authorize remote access to your computer or provide any payment details.11 yearsI had a similar experience. My computer displayed a message claiming that it had a virus and instructed me to call a specific number for technical support. The pop-up message took a long time to disappear, which was quite frustrating. What concerned me the most was that it accurately identified my internet provider and location, leaving me feeling panicked. I attempted to call the number, but sadly, nobody answered the call. Now, I'm worried that I may have unknowingly put myself at even greater risk.11 yearsI experienced a similar incident just now. I was in the middle of watching something, when suddenly a message popped up on the screen. Unfortunately, when I pressed the 'x' button, nothing happened. I repeated this process about five times before the message finally disappeared. It was quite frustrating, really.11 yearsWhen I received this, I was seriously shocked. I really thought it was true. Oh dear, I hope things get sorted out soon.11 yearsI hope our outing in Nueva Ecija on July 7 will push through. I hope it won't rain. Hello, Ken and the team!Nueva EcijaKen11 yearsI have recently received a very urgent call for all Sky Broadband users. It was an American female voice urging to call a specific number. Has anyone else received this call? I tried 'x' command to dismiss it, but it didn't work. Eventually, I resorted to shutting down my computer. It wouldn't be surprising if this itself was the virus! I'm always cautious about clicking on random links or calling unknown numbers as fraudsters can easily pretend to be legitimate. That's how they manage to deceive so many people.Sky Broadband11 yearsI was browsing the Internet when this strange thing occurred out of nowhere. I couldn't find a way to close the webpage or navigate anywhere else. There was an eerie robotic voice repeatedly mentioning the name and location of my broadband provider. It was quite unnerving.

Afterwards, I ran a virus scan and fortunately, no problems were detected.11 yearsI had a similar experience just five minutes ago, but I didn't make the call to the provided number.
