I dunno but it was one of those damn klaxon-blaring alarms, dire warnings, a link to a phone number to “fix my PC” and then sudden shut down.

Freaking script kiddies, again.

Those are annoying, tho it doesn’t seem as if anyone else got a scam-attempt page. They can hide in your browser if you don’t clean it out between usage.

Awhile back one of my bros was worried cause he got a scam-fake “FBI WARNING!!” page. If you haven’t seen one they look something like this image:

It just locks up your browser, it doesn’t do anything else. Clean out your browser cache and cookies and it’s gone.
