    Tech Support Scam - they're not even trying anymore!

    Posted: 01 May 2018 11:42 AM PDT

    So a PC rolled through my shop today that had fallen victim to one of the Tech Support Scammers. We've all seen these by the dozen but this one was at least a little interesting.

    There was a toolbar in the taskbar with the text "My Tech (then a phone number)". The source of this toolbar was a subfolder in the user's documents folder called "Security Tools". Within there was a batch file that was surely used to convince the user while the scammer was on the phone that some technical magic was happening.

    The batch file was named "Anti-hacking IP blocker". Take a look at the nonsense within:

    @echo off color 02 :security echo %random%%random%%random%%random%%random%%random%%random%%random% goto security 

    It doesn't take a coding expert to see what it does.

    My Mini GTX 970 is factory OC, so much that it crashes

    I have this GPU for a few years now and I've used MSI Afterburner to manually dial down the GPU clock so it won't crash every time I get into a 3D game. Is there a way to turn if down permanently?

    Thanks
