They claim to be from some tech companies
There are some scammers that will try to steal your information by asking you if you had some problems with your computer or phone and all you have to do is to hang up. So, they will claim to be from some tech organizations, such as Microsoft, Apple or other telecommunications or internet companies.
“No one is ‘watching’ your computer for signs of a virus,” says Velasquez. And no one will call you to make sure that everything is fine with your devices. Sometimes, some real companies will send you a survey to ask if you are happy with the product you recently bought, but that’s all. Some scammers can install different programs that could steal your personal information, so try to pay attention to the unknown calls. If you have problems with your computer, try to call a professional to fix the problem.
