The warnings aren’t going to harm your machine, as long as you don’t fall for the scam. If you did call them, you would have to deal with professional con artists who would imitate fixing your PC, and then ask for an illogical amount of money.

And if you’re still worried about the warning you are getting, it is false, and your OS is safe. The alerts will only stop popping if you eliminate COVID-19 Relief Fund SCAM, so the sooner you do that, the better.

Are the pop-ups real

If added offers are present, they will be made visible, and if you do not want them, just deselect them. And if you feel they could be useful, take into consideration that they didn’t intend to correctly reveal their installation, and you would have installed them unknowingly. Pay close attention to what you install onto the system, and how you do it, since otherwise, you will constantly end up having to delete COVID-19 Relief Fund SCAM or similar.

These scammers would attempt to convince you that there is a lot wrong with your device, and while they could repair it, it would cost money.
