This is a ransomware attack. 1st. Don't let them on your machine and hang-up. 2nd. If you did. power off the machine, and bring it right in to us to remove the ransomware. They have full access to your computer. Needs to be dealt with quickly.
We have been seeing WAY to many cases of this from Dec-Feb. (32 cases and counting, just in our local area alone.) And the ransomware is only developing into harder to remove versions.
Share this. They are targeting your mom, dad, uncle, aunt. People that are novice with computers.
If you are unsure of a phone call, hang up.
