The only send Mails or help in a chat, but they NEVER get access to your computer.

Hi
@Billy1662
Welcome to the site....
I'm Sorry... But I think you were on one of the Scam lookalike Tomtom website right from the very start....
The Scam websites are visually very professional and are remarkably convincing....
The Phone call or Chat line is where you get first get suckered in... then the Support Service Person (Scammer) rings you to completes the Scam....

See my Signature for more info....

Hi @Billy1662

That is not a genuine Tomtom website but a scam site so I have flagged this to @Luca at Tomtom so he is aware of your case.
