Article3What you need to do now to avoid ransomware & email and phone support scams
There has been lots of attention lately by the news media about data breaches, phony tech support scams and computer ransomware - all things that we've been warning clients about over the years in the Computer Techs monthly email newsletter and website for clients.


Data breaches at Target, Home Depot, Anthem and others have inspired scammers to launch phishing email campaigns and cold-calling operations in hopes to gain the trust of the recipient, then persuade them to reveal personal information and send money.


If you receive an unexpected email from a friend, business or organization - never click a link or button in the email or open an attachment. It's best to...

CheapSupportDon't rely upon cheap, inexperienced technical support: "You get what you pay for"

Do you have a friend or neighbor who works with computers in their spare time? Similar to hiring an unlicensed contractor to work on your home, it may be cheap to go with a friend or neighbor.

 

But, does that person actively keep up-to-date with the computer industry and fix several computers on a daily basis like we do? 

 

Computer Techs has been in business since 2003, and our technicians have over 20 years of computer experience. We're a local Reno business that you can trust - not some call center in India or The Phillippines. We're often called to repair what someone else attempted to fix or misrepresented as major computer problems.

 

The next time you need tech support give us a call. You can count on Computer Techs to get the job done quickly and correctly, and we'll be available the next time you need service. 

 

Spread the good word, get free tech support
