Scare advertising hitting android Devices!

I Think NOT!

I was doing some stuff and this little advertisement appeared on my tablet:

Phone is Infected, Remove Virus Now! (Scare Tactic)

As you can see there is a lot to this that you can’t really, even though I know Androids aren’t immune.  This seems to indicate the advertising of malware is on the rise.  So I intend to help those who want to be helped.  Let’s by chance think you have a virus on your tablet or phone.   How do you get it off, there are a few ways.   One you can do a hard reset and restore you phone or tablet to factory settings.   Essentially wiping all information from the phone.  

Don’t install any 3rd party applications!

Use coupon code “Savenow15” and Save 15% off the lifetime of your account!One of my common rules is not to install any third party applications unless I trust the source and just because they look legitimate doesn’t always mean they are.   For example, the picture looks convincing enough but home site (androidantivirusfree.org) has nothing there which indicates to me that it is designed to install malicious software to make you buy there cure for their android virus or malware!

Although this is the beginning of this, I am just going to.  I have already talked about this in a previous post so I will just say this.  Don’t do anything without consulting a geek!

Don’t Do business with: “Check Management Services [CMS]” (collection agency)

Paul

I recently got what I would call a Scam because they made me feel like they were REAL Police Officers and that my wife was in the court systems. I thought I would warn people about this company because of their UNETHICAL Way of how they get their money for claims. I have been tricked and to a point scammed to give them my money and I wanted to warn everyone else about their tactics and who they are. I tried to file a police report but they said that this is unfortunately not a crime because they used the WORD “Investigator” and not Detective in their Voice mail Message. I would encourage anyone and everyone who reads this and being harassed by these people to do a few things:

 

  1. Record your Call with them — It is however Mandatory to have tell them so they know you are recording the call, and get all the information about them. (This will help you tell people)

  2. Get everything in WRITING — Another way that will help in this message because you can warn others of this company who will probably change their Phone number in the future because of this blog Post!!

  3. Now your Rights with Debt Colelction — This is great resource that I should of looked at when this was being done but didn’t. I know know what they can and can not do! Read it and make sure you know your rights. Help fight this injustice by reporting them to the FTC if they try this on you!!!

Anyway these are some of the things you can do to fight back against this company. I know will tell you what I numbers and people I have found to help others who have scared us honest working Citizens.

Some of the People that I found to be with this company are:

  1. Chief investigator Morgan or “Lead Investigator”1

  2. Case Investigator Rogers1

  3. Investigator Mills

  4. investigator Tyson

  5. Todd Williams

  6. Lester Kincaid

These are just a few that I have found but If you get a call from someone else please leave a comment on what happened so others can find this post and also be warned about this company. Now I will talk about the Numbers that I have found to be associated with this company:

  1. 877-485-50402

  2. 877-499-94737

  3. 877-269-17451

  4. 877-313-44023

  7. 877-269-1745

P.s. I tried to get the address but this Collection Agency won’t give me the address they also sent me a Reciept for this complaints: northerntier.agency@gmail.com Which seems to be Norther Tier Agency. I will do my research to see if I can find the Address but if you know the address I would love for you to make a comment or contact me!! The address on the reciept was:

Antivirus System Pro — Just another Scareware

Paul

In One of my Previous rants I talked about [intlink id=”3761″ type=”post”]Antivirus System Pro[/intlink].  I finally found a site that tried to scare me into downloading critical software updates.

Antivirussystempro

As you can see this site is Spyware-scan-for-free.com but what is most important is that it actually tells you the truth before you install it.   “Some Security Vulnerabilities detected with High probability.  It May damage your files or steal you person and financial information.”  This one site is trying to you make you think you are install critical updates but in reality it is probably do what it states  by clicking the OK.

Although I talked about how to remove this, I would like to talk about just how bad it is to download “Critical security updates” from unknown or untrusted sites. Although most people usually do Google for keywords like “Antivirus System pro” or “Spyware-scan-for-free.com. I will tell you that if you think you have a security problem to go to the Windows update and see if there is an update that need to be applied.

Threat to System : Moderate

[rating:4/5]

Advice : Do a Complete system scan and make sure you don’t have any more hidden malware. Most of the time if you have one Trojan, you usually have more.
