We've seen posts here about folks getting calls from people claiming to be from "Windows" or "Microsoft," saying they're getting reports of error messages from the recipient's computer. It's a well-documented (at this point) scam in which the callers/scammers attempt to get you to click to a website or similar so they can hack your computer for fraudulent purposes.
Welp, Mom got a call from one of them earlier today. Literally as I was heading out the door to go to work, I overhear her reaction:
"Well, I don't know how you can be getting error messages from my system, since I don't have a Windows computer. I have an Apple computer. You're wasting your time. Goodbye."
Click.
I'm so proud of her.
