I stupidly fell for this, gave them $199.99. they cleared the "hacked" message that displayed on my screen ( with their phone number, of course). spent 30 min or so ghosting my pc, loaded some software, then told me everything ok. anyone know how to fight this and retrieve $$? and should I also be worried that I gave them access to my pc?
was going to report to FTC, but when I tried Global Computer Support's website, they seem to be legit, based in UT, with tech support in India...how do you know if they're really a scam?!
