Ironically, those guys don’t usually use their remote access to steal your data or implant real viruses (although they could, might, and occasionally do), not least because they know you’re watching along while they “support” you.įor them, remote access merely serves to make it look as though they’re actually doing something to justify the substantial fee they’ll charge you when the “problem” has been “fixed.”īut if crooks figure out your password and use it while you aren’t around, remote access software can be a different sort of gold mine.
Fake technical support scammers – the criminals who call you up at home and lie to you that you have a virus that needs cleaning – love remote access tools.
