Expert Opinion

Ever wonder why your phone lights up with a Microsoft‑style warning that never seems legit? Most of these rings are classic tech‑support scam calls that claim your PC is infected, demand remote access, or try to sell bogus services. Never share personal or payment info, and don’t let anyone verify your computer specs over the phone – legitimate companies never do that. Hang up immediately, note the caller ID, and add the number to a call blocking app or your carrier’s blacklist. Report the incident to the FTC or local consumer‑protection agency, and consider a VoIP‑only line to keep unknown callers at bay.
