  1. fake microsoft warning


    was told by fake microsoft scam that I may have a virus and to call them. I shut down my computer. Ever since then, my screen slowly started to flicker. Now it is flickering a lot, and distorting as well. Ran numerous scans, even tried recovery. Is there a solution as I know I am not first person to experience this problem? Oh yea, I could not find any new programs in my control panel.

    :)

    Is it fake virus warning?

    A window popped up saying my computer is affected by 3 virus and will be damaged in 2 minus if I don't click on "continue". I looked like a common Microsoft website. Is it a fake virus warning?
