Learn how to spot and avoid tech support scams where fraudsters impersonate companies like Microsoft to trick you into giving them access to your PC and stealing your money. Scammers often fake virus warnings, create urgency for quick payments, and use remote access software to control your computer. If you suspect a scam, immediately disconnect your router and report it to your bank. Stay cautious of fake virus alerts and never allow unknown callers to access your devices. Protect yourself by verifying any unsolicited support offers and using a separate line if you need to call back.
