Type of a scam Tech Support
"Mutiah" said that P.C. Booster was having difficulty renewing there contract so they had to return my $300 yearly fee until they got their license back. He said "you used to have two computers covered" and I said I no longer used the other. This also made me assured that he was with P.C.Booster because he knew everything so he had PC Booster information that only they had and he was in my computer and in my bank account. He told me that he had to send two wire transfers as he could only send $150 at one time. I said ok. At this point my computer screen became a series of numbers and symbols and he told me to type 150.00. When I typed 150, I could not enter the decimal period, or anything else. I realize now he had control of the screen the whole time, but then I was just shocked as he exclaimed "Oh my God, $15,000 of Booster's money was just transferred into your account!" He then begged me to go to my bank and wire transfer the money to a person and a bank in the U.S. I went to the bank, asked the teller to check the wire, make sure it was real and that the money was available to use. He said it was and I proceeded to wire $14,500 as "Mutiah" instructed me to, holding out the $300 they owed me and $200 he told me to keep for wire transfer fees. I brought the wire transfer receipt home, scanned it and he pulled it right off my computer (therefore i have no email address or anything). I did not have my computer under my control (and therefore could not see my account). He said that they were searching for anything wrong with my computer as they would not be able to fix it for a while and that i would have control back in a few hours. When I went to bed they were still, as it turns out, in my computer.
For the next few days I was extremely busy out of the house and did not go back into my computer. Monday afternoon, August 6, 2018 "Mutiah" called and said that the wire had been returned to my bank and that he needed me to go back and wire the money in 2 wires so that it would go through. He gave me the addresses to send it to and I did. Once again they jammed my computer so that when I got home, I could not see my bank account. They jammed it late into the night and I finally out it to turn off.
When I got up on Friday morning, August 10, 2018 it was the first time that I was home and had time to go to my computer, open my Bank online program, paid my bills and then looked at all my accounts and found that they had taken $15,000 out of my savings account. I went immediately to the bank and found that not only had they taken $15,000 out of my savings account, but had taken a cash advance on a credit card that was attached to the accounts that I didn't even know was there.
I have all the names, bank accounts and reference numbers. The bank closed all my accounts and opened others. I called the police and have a report number, I have copies of the wire transfers.
I had a professional come and clean my computer (he is writing a report) and he found 7 attachments that these people had put on my computer to allow them access.
