Another Fake Virus Scareware Scam
I’ve received two phone calls today with similar sounding circumstances. Apparently a screen will pop-up on a your browser telling you that you have been infected with a virus and you must pay to have it removed. It will ask for personnel information, payment information & your phone number. It will also not allow you to close the webpage. Once you have entered your information you will receive a phone call discussing your payment information and terms on service with them. Do not fall for this it is a scam being run by unethical people overseas. If your browser will not close when this popup occurs follow the directions listed HERE.
