15. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR ADVICE

Sorry; I haven't time to reply individually.

I called the fraud department at my bank to give them the heads up. They said as long as the scammers don't have my account info or personal information, I'll be fine.

I will not engage with them anymore. I kick myself for opening the pdf and calling the SOBs. ("But what did I know?" isn't any good; I feel stupid.)

I'm now taking my laptop to youbreakifix - not only do I want them to check for viruses and whatever else I could've downloaded; I want them to see whatever else may be wrong with it. (It freezes a lot. I am not savvy; I think I've proven that.)

Again - thank you!
