An individual from India, posing as a Windows representative, attempted to gain access to my computer.
Fake Windows tech support scam—how to protect yourself!
Summary — +19513454234
Expert Opinion
Yesterday evening, a user flagged a call claiming to be from Microsoft Windows and demanding remote access to their computer. The caller, speaking with an Indian accent, fit the classic scam pattern where fraudsters pose as tech support to install malware. Recipients should never grant remote control, verify the source through official channels, and hang up immediately. Blocking the number, reporting the incident to the FTC and local consumer protection agencies, and scanning the device with reputable security software are essential steps. Staying skeptical of unsolicited support offers helps protect personal data and finances.
