"Hello, I’m calling you because we got a notification that your computer has several problems!"  Dit is vaak de eerste zin bij Tech Support Scams oftewel helpdeskfraude.

 Cybercriminelen doen zich in dit geval voor als een helpdesk. Slachtoffers krijgen bijvoorbeeld te horen dat hun computer geïnfecteerd is met malware en dat reparaties noodzakelijk zijn. Om het ‘probleem’ te verhelpen moet een programma gedownload worden waarmee de cybercriminelen de computer op afstand tijdelijk kunnen overnemen. Gedupeerden moeten na afloop geld betalen voor de zogenaamde werkzaamheden terwijl er niets is gebeurd. Bovendien lopen ze het risico dat er malware op de PC wordt geïnstalleerd om toegang te krijgen tot gegevens.

 In deze aflevering legt security evangelist Eddy Willems uit wat helpdeskfraude is en wat je er tegen kunt doen. Daarnaast demonstreert hij hoe oplichters te werk gaan aan de hand van een opgenomen telefoongesprek met een échte cybercrimineel.

As a result I’ll explore whether or not these fears and anxieties are true to Gen X or if they have been derived and passed down by previous generations, such as Gen Z and Gen X. With this, I’d like to interview people from Gen X as well as millennials and this will be used to compare to the data results that we got earlier this week. We’ll discuss fear of failure; social media views a My Precious Bollywood Fatema Danyal If there is one thing any Hindi movie fanatic can agree on it is that some movies deserve to be talked about till the end of time. Since we do not exactly know what the end of time is, I am starting now. Listen to a girl excitedly ramble about the love for Bollywood that courses through her veins and look at some gems through my giddy, enthusiastic eyes! You might find something you will come to love or rediscover something you forgot about. Mother Earth Inner_voiceover My Precious children, I am not in good shape. For many, many years I have been nourishing all life. It is my wish that you grow into strong, healthy individuals, and so I give you everything that I have- air to breath, water to drink, land to live and food to eat. I am happy when I see you and your families happy. I decided to write this letter to you because I am very ill now. There are many greedy people who are polluting the air, poisoning the rivers, cutting down the tree and killing many precious life forms.
