Expert Opinion

Yesterday morning, a call from +12527876096 claimed to be Windows Support and warned of a severe virus. The script sounded like a classic tech‑support scam, urging you to grant remote access. Hang up immediately and never share credentials or allow remote control. Verify any such alerts through official channels—Microsoft’s support site or a known phone number. Keep your system updated, run reputable anti‑malware scans, and consider blocking the number. If you suspect fraud, report it to your carrier and the FTC. Staying skeptical and using official verification steps can stop these scams before they reach your PC.
