You don’t need to worry about the warnings harming your OS, and unless you dial the provided number, you’ll be fine.

Are the warnings real

The most possible way you obtained the threat is through freeware bundles. It comes attached as an optional item which Default settings don’t show, and you can’t unmark it if you can not see it, which will allow it to install. We encourage picking Advanced or Custom settings since otherwise, you will not be able to uncheck the offers. If Advanced settings reveal something, ensure you unmark all the items. And while those items might not necessarily cause harm, if you weren’t properly informed about their installation, they do not belong on your OS. It is essential that you pay attention to how you install programs and where you get them from because otherwise, you will end up having to delete Tecsupporter.com or similar regularly.

The fake ads intend to trick users into thinking that their machine has ran into some kind of problem. Scammers warn you about a variety of different of problems, such as malware, licensing or computer problems. The alert will also attempt to intimidate you by warning you about data breaches and leaked information because this puts pressure on less experienced users. So as to prevent those data loss scenarios, the user is asked to call scammers who are posing as tech-support. No legitimate company will ever ask you to call them, so keep that in mind. For example, if Apple or Microsoft is asking you to call them, it’s obviously a scam. These con artists would try to convince you that there is a lot wrong with your machine, and while they could fix it, it would cost money. Tech-support scams are very transparent but because less-computer savvy people have not happened upon them before, they might fall for them. It isn’t hard to imagine why somebody may fall for these scams because if they’re showing up regularly, they may look more real. If you’re still doubtful about whether the alert is legitimate, you can always use a search engine to look into it, and that would resolve all the doubts. Chances are, the first few results will confirm that it’s a scam. So do not pay any attention to the warnings and just deal with the problem. There’s nothing to worry about if you’ve ran into it once, but if you regularly get them, you will have to erase Tecsupporter.com advertising-supported software.
