[quote=Anonymous]OP, well done! My mom had something similar happen a few weeks ago. Her Alexa stopped working so she googled Alexa tech support and called a scam site. They convinced her to let them port onto her desktop and started to show her all these supposed viruses in an attempt to convince her to pay for virus protection. Thankfully she caught on and called me, and I duly freaked out. She got her computer reformatted and changed everything - even started new bank accounts on the advice of the bank. I felt so badly for her, as I don’t live close so couldn’t really help. Glad your mom has you and your brother to look out for her![/quote]
