The Ford bitch that's against Kavanaugh..
early this afternoon, having finally fixed my wife effing FORD Fucus ....I went on the computer, the win7 machine, and hit FB....and in there was a post about someone saving the High Screwal yearbook of her old HS in the DC region Holton Arms Academy....it had a decent rep at one point but like all yuppie screwals, it had turned into a party/shack place with the other male populated grade screwals.....and so there that bitch was all over the page....
BUT the legit site was purged on all references to the 3 years she went there...and of course, someone 'saved'/copied the pages before they were purged.....and so when I hit the link, it not take long for the computer to go to a very large green tint screen and some reference to MSFT....and I could not figger out how to get the damn thing off the screen, it made the machine unusable.....so apparently it's part of some scam operation, and the screen gave a number to MSFT.....so not knowing, I called and this foreign accent with decent English answers the line, and I get to talk and turn over the machine to him, and he wants 200 bux to unlock the damn machine.....perpetual locked into 'SAFE MODE' and wife/I not figger out how to get out of it, much less we think we won, and it reverts with every boot up.....essentially destroyed..... SO, here I am on my win 10 machine...... that site about the screwal, supposedly a PORN site....nothing porn about the yearbook they showed, even had some of the kids pix blacked out, but bragged/told of the party hardy racy atmosphere the teachers condoned in the screwal..... nuff to drive me nutz....short trip.... |

Turn that machine off immediately. Call your banks and tell them your computer was hijacked and disable access to your accounts via computer IMMEDIATELY! |

Info on what to do.
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...f-0305b10adaf5 you should consider that machine a complete loss and reinstall fresh from a system restore. |

Wife will try to get the pix over the next week or so, and save to thumb drive....oh well,....I may take it to some geeks and get them to do it, so assured the thumb drive is not infected.....
I did feel awful/uncomfy about calling that number, and sure enough it was a scammer.....sure as hell put a lock on the machine though....all under the MSFT banner too.... |

Didn't you just go through this recently, with calling some number that appeared on your screen?
