Attorney General Leslie Rutledge is warning Arkansans of a prevalent tech support scam infecting common electronic devices, such as smart phones, laptops and tablets. This antivirus software scam usually begins with a phone call or pop-up on the consumer’s electronic device.
The communication is actually from a fake tech support representative claiming to be from a well-known technology company.
“I urge all Arkansans to be cautious when anyone asks for access to their devices or private information,” said Rutledge. “Scam artists scour the internet and phonebooks to find unsuspecting victims who are willing to share their sensitive information.”
Often times, the scammer claims to need sensitive information such as account numbers, date of birth or Social Security number in order to remedy the issue.
The scam artists use this information for illegal activities, such as gaining access to consumer’s bank accounts.
