I'm going to show you a few tips and tricks that you can use to avoid getting scammed by these!

1. Avoid any messages saying your computer is infected

This is one of the most commonly used tactics they use, they get you to
call a number for immediate support and when they do, they ask you
for hundreds of dollars. I'm sure! Just avoid it.

2. Check on sites like virus total to make sure that antivrius you just downloaded isn't a rouge itself.

Another tactic they use is that they make a program, then the fake antivirus
detect this and will remove it for a "small fee". You can avoid this if the name
sounds suspicious or use virus total to scan the site for malware!

3. Check on sites like Malwarebytes for the newest rouges.

Seriously, do it! It can decrease your chances of falling for these scams,
because you'll already know about it.
