    Hack Scam

    I'm just mentioning this in case anyone else gets one. I went onto a link viaIE11
    [seemed respectable - no MSN Warnings] for music downloads, and a
    window appeared to say I'd been hacked, this hacker was trying to
    hack "their" webpage and I had to call a free number listed to get my
    Internet Explorer Unlocked
    as "they" had had to lock it for "their safety". Needless to say I didn't call them, and
    Win Def didn't find anything.

    IE wasn't affected, either. How these scammers are linking to
    Users perhaps only a technician can tell. There are numerous Help
    Pages on the net to check if one has been hacked, and
    they wouldn't have to coax one to phone them if they could penetrate MSN
    defences via a web page. I haven't included any details because this particular scam is local.
