    Scammers typically target the elderly and attempt to steal money by several means.
    1. Your Bank Saving or Checking accounts
    2. Investment accounts or 401k retirement funds
    3. Credit and Debit cards
    4. Purchasing Gift cards
    5. Cash withdrawls
    6. Cryptocurrency
    Scammers are ruthless criminals that have no problem stealing every last dime from their victims bank accounts. Please protect yourself as well as family members who might not be familiar with these type of scams.

So they can't repurpose the machines they used till got banned. This will add huge cost to their operation because they will need new computers and new hardware.

      Same here; they almost got $10K out of my elderly mother the same way a decade ago. Fortunately I had previously set-up sms authentication on all online transfers with her bank due to her developing dementia, so the authorisation code went to my phone (not hers, which they had already taken over) and I was made aware in real-time that someone was attempting to grab her money. Had to completely wipe her computer and do a full re-install from scratch as they had installed keyloggers and various other pieces of malicious software; also had to bin her SIM & phone number & start afresh there too.

      As an Indian speaking, generally the people hate scammers just as much as you guys. I’m Bihari, so we aren’t really known for scams as much as say, Bangalore people, but the police care, and it hurts to see other people say otherwise. Contrary to popular belief, scam centers are shut down frequently, usually through some kind of “accident” that everyone was in the room but coincidentally, “nobody saw”. Only one or two scam call centers out of many stay undetected by the people and remain open.

      You pretty much have to save what you can, Scan that drive by plugging it into a dummy pc (one you arent worried about losing) - then if it comes out safe, you can transfer your old important documents, photos, etc, over. It's really best to just format everything. I've had viruses hide in some scary places. Somehow in 2016 I got what is called a "rootkit" and the virus worked even AFTER I formatted my hard drive. A computer guy tried to explain to me that it had been installed somewhere that the OS doesn't reach.. so then I used a linux tool to erase the drive, and the virus was actually gone. Windows installer does not really format.
      TL;DR Restore points dont take viruses away. You usually have to delete everything.

    • @amzarnacht6710

      Nah, didn't stop them for good.
      They'll just create new anydesk IDs like any other half way competently run business, port over the data from a backup computer, and resume where they left off within 15 minutes.
      Without using a root kit to place encrypted keys from anydesk in the comp's BIOS memory they can just wipe the drives, reinstall anydesk, create new IDs, port over the victim data, and resume where they left off. Sure, they might not have immediate access to victim comps, but they'll sucker in new vics within hours.
      OFC, writing to BIOS is a huge virus flag so even a bad AV package will catch it so there's no real way to stop these scammers other than a bullet or brick of high explosive.

    • @runed0s86
      @runed0s86 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The only way to stop them is by making a bios timebomb. After about a week, the virus should activate and permanently turn off the fans and over temperature protection of the GPU and/or CPU. This would make all the computers on the network extremely slow and possibly permanently destroy components in them. A harddrive reload won't work. Computers are expensive.

      They will keep going through remote-access outfits until they find a company that's too desperate for revenue to care more about ethical issues than the scammers themselves. For naive victims, they have no idea who the mainstream connection app players are at all. They don't know "Anydesk" from sqwat.
      Remember that the big scam centers are often part of bigger front-end outfit doing more or less legit business, and as a last resort will contract with an Indian code-mill company for a custom connection app, stripped down to the essentials for the specific features needed to, eg., hide screens, edit html, etc.
