Hello,,
My computer went black and it says that I need to call the indicated number. But I’ve heard that such alerts might be fake as well. How should I know if it is the real thing?

Thank you for the inquiry. The main thing how you can differentiate the original alert from the fake one is the included phone number. The scammers attempt to wheedle out the money from you. That is why they encourage to make a call. It is likely they will offer to purchase questionable applications. Do not get tempted to buy anything.

As for the elimination, make sure you get rid of the malware by using a trustworthy security application, for example, FortectIntego.
