Tankosaurus Posted December 4, 2013 ID:760801 Share Posted December 4, 2013 So yesterday I was called by this Indian by microsoft, I went through the scamming process until I was told to enter Ammyy v3.3 exe in the command box. It opened up a link on my web browser and he told me to download it, which I did and he told me to tell him my ID that showed up, and I did. My wallpaper turned black and told me that it's running a computer scan. He then later tells me that your license has expired and then that's when I knew he was a scammer, so I shut the phone. But what I'm worried about now is that is my laptop infected? I went to Control Panel and couldn't find Ammyy, I looked in the process tab in the task manager and also couldn't find Ammy there, I did a whole computer scan with AVG and 0 threats were found. Is my computer safe as I didn't find Ammyy in control and that 0 threats were found? I'm also worried that when I gave him my ID he probably has access to my computer, I restarted my computer yesterday and nothing odd happened. Please help!

Tankosaurus Posted December 5, 2013 Author ID:760951 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Also, I'm only 15 and do not have any bank account details so I didn't pay anything to the caller, however, my parents do have bank accounts, will the scammer have access to theirs? I didn't give him any details about their accounts and as soon as he told me I need to pay, I hang up. But what I'm worried about now is that is my laptop safe? Please help!
