Today I found out I am the victim of a computer scam.fortunately my bank caught it in time.It was the Microsoft tech support scam.A week ago I got both a written and recorded message on my computer screen supposedly from Microsoft saying that spyware has been detected and to contact them immediately by calling the number in the message.I called my social worker about it to see if it was legit and she told me to call the number.Too make a long story short I had to get a new debit card and open a new bank account.I feel so terrible because I had to cancel my session with my therapist to straighten everything out.I feel like I am going to have a panic attack cause of all the excitement.
