Scam from 02039 508393

wonderous

I do have been onto what I thought was the official TomTom site and was contacted back. They told all my drivers are out of date and they wanted me to buy a new firewall from the at £334.00 They telephoned from 02039 508393. Got access into my computer without my permission etc as others have said. I decided this wasn't for real and terminated the conversation and switched off my computer. Is it safe to use again please?

Yes, a scam. You must have clicked some link somewhere to allow their access to your computer.Check it with an anti-virus/malware piece of software.

But it did say it was a Tom Tom site, not sure how they can get away with that.

Hi @wonderous

I am sure if you search around they could also sort your Garmin if you had one. They usually don't have a Tomtom Logo at the top but use it in the sales pitch.

Tomtom are always having to try and stop these sites. So any webpage info etc helps them in this quest.
