Scammed or Hacked? Digital Security Check Perth
If someone had remote access to your computer, took over your email or tricked you into a fake "tech support" call, we find and remove what they left behind and lock your accounts back down — across the Perth CBD, Osborne Park, Joondalup, Stirling, Midland, Fremantle, Rockingham and Armadale.

08 6385 7940Perth scam calls usually come from someone pretending to be your bank, Telstra, Microsoft or the NBN, and they often come in the morning while it is still the middle of the night on the other side of the world. If you let someone onto your computer or handed over a password, the priority is your money first and your devices second. We take care of the devices.
When to Book a Security Check
Someone Had Remote Access
You let a caller install AnyDesk, TeamViewer, Quick Assist or similar and control your computer.
Fake Tech Support Call
A caller claimed to be from Microsoft, Telstra, NBN, your bank or the police and asked you to do things on your computer.
Email Account Taken Over
Friends are getting emails you didn’t send, or you can’t log in and the recovery details have changed.
Scary Pop-Up Warning
A browser page said your computer was infected or locked and gave a phone number to call.
Clicked a Scam Link
You entered a password or card details on a fake login page from a text or email.
Something Just Feels Wrong
New programs you didn’t install, the mouse moving on its own, or settings that keep changing.
What Scammers Leave Behind
A remote-access scam rarely ends when you hang up. While they had control, scammers often install a second remote-access program in case you remove the first, save your browser passwords, add a browser extension that watches what you type, or open your email and create a rule that quietly forwards copies of your messages to them.
None of this is obvious from the desktop, which is why deleting the one program you remember installing is not enough. Our check goes through the computer methodically — programs, services, startup items, browser, user accounts and email settings — so you know it is clean before you use it for banking again.
Your Money Is a Job for Your Bank
We are a computer support business, not a bank or a recovery agency. If money has left your account or card details were entered anywhere, call your bank first — they can stop transactions and advise you on disputing them. Report the scam through ReportCyber at cyber.gov.au so police have a record, and contact IDCARE on 1800 595 160 if your identity documents or personal details were shared.
Be very careful of anyone who contacts you afterwards offering to recover lost money for a fee. That is a well-known follow-up scam aimed at people who have just been targeted. We will never contact you out of the blue.
