Scam. Phew, that was a close shave.
« on: May 17, 2023, 09:53 »
Just looking at my home page with various news items, there was one where you could see historical people as they really were. Saw Richard III then clicked on CONTINUE, did it again, then got message my PC had been compromised by a Trojan spyware etc and it wouldn't let me close any of the windows that came up and I had to contact Microsoft something or other to unblock it. Despite it saying don't shut down your computer I did and all appears as usual. Be careful if this happens to you and, as Lance Corporal Jones would say, "Don't panic!"
I work very hard so don't expect me to think as well.

I am waiting for my computer man.  Yesterday I couldn,t get into anything.   It was saying my wife Wasn,t right and something else as well.   These things only happen when I have had to do an update.  Now I have got to pay to put it right.   Mrs bouquet.
