One day my PC screen turned orange.An automated said your PC informed me a virus has infected my unit.There was an 888 toll free number to call to check it out.They claimed to be level 5 technicians of Microsoft,wanted $499.00 to fix my PC.I told them I cannot afford $499.00,my PC only cost $399.00.I then contacted an internet company called GuruAid.They wanted $299.00 for two years to maintain my PC.I also told them I couldn't afford this on a fixed income.They didn't care and asked for my bank account number,had my bank pay them $299.00 of which I didn't have.I only had a little over $50.00 in checking.This company told me I can put the money in my account the next day.If they knew I had the money.Every month they wanted to take remote control of my PC to tune it up.Each time we spoke they asked for a hundred dollars for another year.I kept repeating I cannot afford it.I stopped allowing this company to mess w/ my PC.A couple of days ago they called to tell me I hadn't had my PC checked and ssaid to call them at a number.I didn't call and won't be calling ever again.This is criminal what these so called tech's do to the general consumer.I've informed the Attorney General regarding these tactics,
