Seeing complaints of people losing money because of scammers pretending to be government agency, power company or others.
1. Never give out Social Security Number on an inbound call. If they are legitimate you can call them back on number they provide. Even if they give you a valid number, it won't be answered with using the agencies proper name.
2. Never give Medicare number on an inbound call.
3. Never give credit card information, especially the security code on an inbound call

Microsoft NEVER calls you about a problem.
Don't give someone you do not know access your computer (or phone).

I do remote repairs but I ALWAYS make sure the customer knows me, and that they know how to disconnect if uncomfortable.

If someone has been in from past, it is frequent they leave a pathway to get back in.

If your worried about your own computer, feel free to give me a call. 7 days a week. 8am to 9pm.

Microsoft will be releasing Windows 11.
It will be a free upgrade to anyone with Windows 10.

If you have not updated to Windows 10 from Windows 7 or 8, now is definitely the time to do it.
We do not know whether we can get a Windows 7 or 8 computer updated directly to 11. Sounds like no. Windows 8.0 is at end of life. Windows 8.1 is supported until 2023.

Please!!!!
Microsoft or the Windows department will never call you.
A call that starts that way is a scam.

Under NO circumstances should you grant them access to your computer.

Nobody should share a computer remotely unless it with someone you know personally and trust.

I offer remote services but only to people I get to know. And each time I make sure they know how to instantly disconnect the session if they get nervous.

Are you getting Windows 7 End of Security messages?

It is not too late to upgrade most computers from 7 to Windows 10.

It could be unsafe to do internet banking or shopping after Jan 14 on Windows 7.

Call at 904-531-9570 to discuss upgrade.

Don't get left out. Windows 7 reached end of life in February of 2020.

Although not advertised, a licensed copy of 7 will still update to windows 10.

Be safe, call me for upgrade assistance.

Under no circumstances should you use Internet Explorer after end of life. Chrome and Firefox will still keep you safe on the internet but IE also will stop receiving even emergency updates.

If you are still on windows 7, it will go end of life in feb 2020.

Most computers can still be upgraded to 10 with no additional fee to Microsoft.

We can help.

Got a call today, actually called me. I was told my Windows license had expired and to call a toll free number.

It is a scam. Windows licenses DO NOT expire.

Just hang up and don't worry about it.

If you encounter other problems give us a call.
