What are you waiting for?
Be on the alert for a scam. I almost fell for it myself today. I was online using Foxfire when all the the sudden my computer starts beeping. There's a pop up from Foxfire that I need to call a Microsoft Technician. Something about a dll____ file being compromised. Don't turn off your computer because you can cause bad people access to your computer. (Those aren't the exact word but the gist of it.) So, I called the number because I was like WTF? I've never had this happen before. Of course, Middle Eastern dude. Asked me the problem. I told him. He was like oh, your computer gives you that warning when someone is trying to access your computer that shouldn't. Okay? So, he has me go to this website. I see that it wants me to input a 6 digit code and download software and I'm like, ohhhh...something's not right. So, I told the guy I'm not downloading anything to my computer because I don't know who it's from and what it's for. He's like, "Well, why would I try to access your computer to get your information? Why would I do that?" Um, hello. Because you're a hacker? Not like a hacker is going to say, "Hi, I'm a hacker. I want your info. Can you give it to me please?" Then the guy got really nasty and called me stupid because I didn't know anything about computer. OH HELL TO THE NO, YOU DID NOT JUST GO THERE! Well, it might have been "stupid" in not realizing this wasn't legit sooner, but I found out before I gave you access to my computer. So yeah, not completely stupid! So, if you get this popping up on your computer, DON'T FALL FOR IT NO MATTER HOW LEGIT IT LOOKS. Because mine really did. I'll give them props for that.
