Avngate Tech Live Support Hang up if this company calls you! Internet

 In the past 3 yrs this company assisted me with problems and their charge was minimal. Last night changed that. I got a worm from Facebook and when this company went in remote to fix it, they locked me out and want $500 before they open it. The creeps preceded to delete things off of my computer. The punk laughed and used foul language. Fortunately I back up my Mac every 2 days on an external drive. I shut down my computer and now my computer is with a reputable good friend who works with a Geek Squad. He told me this kind of problem is the most common, and he can fix it. I never gave the crooks any personal or financial information. But to be safe I went to my banks and changed my passwords and I cancelled my credit cards. No charges were made against my banks or credit cards, but changing passwords and cards makes me feel more secure. These punks are crooks. If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. If you get a pop up chat or request from Tech Live Support hang up or delete their pop up. They'll keep on hounding you, but will eventually quit to find another sucker.
