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?

    Yea l knew someone that gave remote access out to one of these scams. Couldn’t be sure they didn’t leave a reverse shell so we just formated the drive and reinstalled windblows.
