Database Deals & Giveaways Be A Guest Writer Your computer is infected with malicious software? Do you have pop-ups on your PC? If so, search this blog for removal instructions or browse computer threats by category. http://deletemalware.blogspot.com/2015/03/1-844-332-7029-critical-system-alert.html Tuesday, March 24, 2015 1-844-332-7029 Critical System Alert Scam Pop-Up Removal Guide Tell your friends: http://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN299201 Tweet If your web browser redirects you to dodgy websites that try to get you to call 1-844-332-7029 to remove viruses then your computer is infected with adware and possibly some other malware. I've found a few websites that promote this tech support scam: system-online-error.com and security-support.co. It would be a good idea to block both websites because system error they display fake pop-up windows claiming that your computer is infected with malware. Notice how scammers use Microsoft Security Essentials logo and your IP address which can be easily found using a JavaScript code to make the warning look legitimate. It even pretends to scan your computer but what it really does is simply display a fake web page with fake virus detection. Just like any other tech support scam, it says that you critical system error should call a number, in this case 1-844-332-7029, to get your computer fixed. If you don't know already, scammers won't fix your computer and will install bogus programs including remote access tools. Needles to say, it's might end up pretty bad if you decide to call and then follow their directions. Here's how the fake pop-up warning reads: System has found multiple viruses that pose a serious threat: Trojan.FakeAV-Download Adware.Win32.Look2me.ab Adware.Hotbar Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.abm Your personal and financial information might be at risk call 1-844-332-7029 for security check. Some of the threats listed in this pop-up warning do exist but others were made up to scare you. They are clearly not for Microsoft and this pop-up is not from Microsoft Security Essentials. Your IP address, date and other information can be easily pulled using a simple web script in case you wonder how they know such information. The statement that Security Essentials has detected that security lever of your computer is critically low is also false. As a matter of fact, you may not have it installed on your computer. Spyware and adware are often mentioned in the same breath and this is because a lot of adware programs exhibit some seriously spyware type behavior. Adware comes with a component which monitors your Internet usage and then relays the information
