Why Specialist Scam Recovery Matters
Scam calls and texts are more common than ever in Essex. These criminals don't just want a one-off payment; they often leave monitoring software behind to steal banking logins or identity details later.
We recently helped a Wickford resident who allowed remote access after a fake "Microsoft" call. We didn't just "clean" the PC; we stripped out the persistent tracking software, rebuilt their security layers, and provided a full report for their bank.
Rule of Thumb: A genuine company (like Microsoft, Amazon, or your Bank) will never pressure you to act immediately, ask for payment in gift cards, or stop you from hanging up. If they do, it is a scam.
