  1. BEWARE OF SCAMMERS


    Today I recieved a phone call from an Indian related individual. He informed me that his company was going out of business and had to refund $299.00 Related to the fact that Windows Defender was no longer working because it expired. He wants people to download www.anydesk.com so they can refund the money so it isn't charged to your account. This program allows anyone to gain access to your computer and act as administrator over your computer. THIS IS A SCAM FROM INDIA.DO NOT DOWNLOAD ANYDESK TO YOUR COMPUTER. I asked him is Defender isn't working then why is it working on my pc just fine. He couldn't answer.
