Description

My computer locked up and was saying Do Not try to Shut Down. Contacted the # listed and Microsoft would help correct the issue. I spoke to "Dave Wilson" many times. They did scan my computer. He told Me different stories about why the GOVERNMENT NEEDED specific info. He scanned my VDL! He wanted My credit card info, which I DID NOT give him. He instructed Me to open a Crypto Coin account, DUD, which I did but since have closed. They are so convincing, and I was so stupid! Even tho I did not give out any Banking #'s, Funds were transferred from one account to another. I went to the Bank and closed all accounts. No money has been lost, so far.
