It looks like it's being fixed as it is still under remote access control and doing ummm things lol.
Or maybe not lol!!!
Mastercard said that they will refund of I think the whole thing is a scam and take it to a technician and get an expert letter.
The good thing is that the credit card is only a prepaid card and I only use it by adding enough money to pay for what I'm buying

No I canceled my bank cards just to be sure that they couldn't somehow get that info and empty my accounts.
So knows maybe my computer will finally run better.
Or maybe I'll have to start a gofundme thing just to buy my next meal.

I've called the company and they're assuring me that they are still fixing it remotely which it does look like.
Maybe they're reading this thread and having a good laugh as they destroy my life.
By the way I'm posting this from my phone while I anxiously stare at my computer screen.
Oh and Scooby has removed the offending thread.

This is either like watching a car crash in slow motion or a live tweet of a natural disaster or you are very, very lucky.
What number did you call? What website or where are they from? Break Logic llc doesn't show much information at all....

It all looks so legit and they are STILL scanning and working on my computer remotely. Or hopefully they are.
They have several 800 numbers 888 907 3691 is the first but also 800 920 2134. +1 844-259-0143 1 888-907-3691. I've spoken to them on all of them.
As for watching a slo mo car crash, I've got a front row seat.
This has been going on for like 4 hours.
They may do a legit job but the way they solicit business is pretty scammy

Oh boy.
Just got a call from them apologizing for taking so long. The first technician went off duty and handed it to another. They are running windows defender software and think another 20 minutes.
I've been watching what they're doing and from a very unsophisticated opinion they seem to be finding infected programs drivers stopped working and duh some other stuff.
Sorry for the drama but what the fuck else are you on here for.
Weather here (Toronto) too shitty to go get a drink. And the drama unfolding on my laptop is too heart wrenching to leave
Now running Piriform CCleaner
Aye yae yae

Oh well I've never paid a dime in 20 years for Antivirus but then again this computer had been shit for a long time and avg free wasn't helping.
Only time will tell. They just ran another one too but I missed the name. Oh Adw cleaner.
Plus my son always fucked around trying to get movies and shit would get downloaded.
Hey if a techie is taking 3 or more hours then I'm good.
I hope.
Not to mention the odd dabbling watching porn.
Whoops I didn't say that.
SQUAWK!!!!
You're falling for one scam after another. Birds shouldn't have computers.

Help.
I feel like a canary in a coal mine
Been talking to their tech guy for an hour.
Okay. 3pm my time till 1128pm including an hour and 17 minutes with techie on phone.
At this point computer seems much faster but maybe I'm being optimistic.

Okay I was probably scammed. The credit card company said I have 45 days to dispute the charges.
Maybe they did fix my computer (it's running great) but they held me hostage by opening a window that I couldn't close, at least in my semi computer literate state and took control of my computer until I signed that I was satisfied with their services.
My wife bought some vitamins online before which I didn't agree with, but let her do it. Then they billed us again. The credit card company promptly contacted them and reversed the charges etc.
Anyway enough of this bullshit for one day. I'll not suffer you with further details unless there are major repercussions.
And by this happening to me maybe I saved some other 440ers the same fate.

LOL
