I'm being scammed and I don't know what to do.

10. There are daily scams from companies I never did business with.

Some even have an old password or two that I abandoned after sites (Yahoo, LinkedIn, DocuSign) were hacked.

I just ignore them, or if they misrepresent a company, I forward the email to that company’s abuse line, usually abuse@company_name or phishing@company_name.

Try not to even open such emails from unknowns, and certainly don’t click on links in them, download anything and NEVER open an attachment from one. Needless to say, don’t call them.

One of the scams is to put a javascript endless loop in a web page, so your computer LOOKS frozen.

Learn how to hard-kill your browser (I guess it’s control-alt-delete or killall … whatever), and lose that tab.

The Norton scam is quote common. So are fake Amazon Prime alerts, many fake bank alerts, PayPal, and even USPS.
