Expert Opinion
Never install remote‑access software for anyone you don’t personally trust. If a caller pressures you to download tools like AnyDesk or PC Anywhere, treat it as a red flag and end the call immediately. Verify the caller’s identity by contacting the organization directly using official numbers, never the ones they provide. Protect your banking information by never sharing credentials over the phone, especially to unknown tech‑support offers. Report suspicious calls to local law enforcement or consumer protection agencies to help track the scam. Keep your computer’s security suite up‑to‑date and educate anyone in your household about the risks of unsolicited remote‑access requests.
