My PC is hacked (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago by Norodix@lemmy.world to c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

I just received a call from an indian microsoft technician. He informed me that my PC is sending a ton of error messages to microsoft. Most likely it has been hacked, and he would help me by remoting in and fixing the problem for me. I just wonder... Is it my PopOs or my Manjaro PC that sends all this info to microsoft?
