'Usabankingcare.online' Pop-Ups

The 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups contain fake information regarding the security and health of the visitor's computer. These pop-ups are hosted on a page that is designed to look as if it is affiliated with the Microsoft Corporation, but we assure you that the 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups are in no way linked to any reputable organization or software publisher. The truth is that the 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups are hosted by con artists that scare people into thinking they need to spend money on expensive technical support services or unpopular computer security software.

The 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups claim that the user's computer has been blocked due to suspicious activity and the only way to resolve the problem is to call 888-710-1018. According to the message, this phone number belongs to a Windows Helpdesk and calling it will help you resolve all pending computer issues. However, this is entirely untrue, and calling 888-710-1018 will get users in touch with a group of people who'll try their best to rip them off of their money. Usually, the con artists involved in technical support tactics attempt to collect their victim's money in a legitimate way – either by offering them expensive software suites or a promotional subscription to technical support services. In either case, users will spend their money on entirely useless products that will not do anything to help make their computers more secure.

Hoaxes like the one hosted on 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups are very unsafe because bolder con artists might attempt to get more than just money from their victims. In some rare cases, these people may attempt to collect the user's credit card information, or demand remote access to their computers to plant threats on it. We advise users never to trust Web browser pop-ups that include virus alerts or warnings, especially if they promote technical support services. Users who encounter the 'Usabankingcare.online' pop-ups should close them immediately, and run an anti-malware scanner to make sure that the issue was not caused by adware or a more severe cyber threat.
