Fake Tech Support Scams are on the rise. Here is some simple steps on how to avoid them

In my latest video I chat about the rise in fake tech support and account compromised scams targeting users, especially on popular social media platforms like Facebook. Here's a quick summary to help you stay safe:

📌 Key Takeaways:

🚀 Stay Calm and Close Pop-ups: If you encounter a pop-up warning about viruses or critical issues urging you to call for assistance, stay calm and close the window immediately. Legitimate companies don’t use pop-ups for virus alerts.

🚀 Never Allow Remote Access: Only grant remote access to trusted professionals. Scammers often use this tactic to gain control of your device/account and steal information or install malicious software.

🚀 Use and Update Security Software: Keep your antivirus software up to date and regularly scan your devices. Turn on 2FA. This simple practice can prevent many security issues.

If you believe you've been scammed, contact your bank immediately to minimise financial damage and secure your personal information. Stay safe and share this information to help others! 💻🔒
