Attacked by Tech Support Scam Pop-Up Today (01-18-2018)
Today, at about 4:30 pm EST, I was hit by a Pop-Up Tech Support Scam. I couldn't close it out, but I could still use Windows Defender. I ran the Quick Scan (It only took about 3 minutes.), and it showed No Threats.
I then immediately ran the Full Scan -- it took one hour and 35 minutes. It detected the following:
SupportScam:JS/TechBrolo.F
I had Windows Defender delete it. I then reported the Scam to Microsoft.
The Pop-Up was accompanied by a male voice that ran on a loop for one minute, informing me to call an 800 number.
