That text about a parcel you never ordered. The bank email that looked almost right. A Facebook login from a town you have never visited. Out on a Hawkesbury property there may be nobody nearby to ask whether it was real, and one wrong click can feel like the whole home office is exposed.
PC Scientist checks the computer and the accounts, cleans out anything that should not be there, and shows you which setting let it in. Send a screenshot or describe the message. We visit, work remotely, or put it in a written quote first.
Hawkesbury homes and small offices get rattled by scam pop-ups, odd login emails, and accounts that no longer feel safe. PC Scientist cleans malware and hardens the openings that invited the scare.
One is enough. If something feels wrong right now, the phone is quickest.

If this is not the job
Want the longer guide? Cybersecurity Scientist.
Scam pop-ups, fake invoices, hacked email, strange sign-in alerts, and computers that slowed after a download. We work with homes on the river flats and acreage, and small workplaces in Windsor, Richmond, and the hill villages.
You do not need the technical name. Tell us what appeared on the screen and what you clicked, if anything.
Many account and email checks can be done remotely, which saves a long drive to Wisemans Ferry or the Colo. If a device may still be infected, or several need hardening, a visit is clearer.
We decide together on the phone, so you are not waiting a day for a trip that was not needed.
Do not pay anything, and do not install anything a caller asked for. If you can, disconnect the computer from the internet and note what you saw.
If you think banking details were exposed, change that password from a different device, then ring us and we will go through the rest.
You hear the price before we start. A single scam check is quoted simply, and a full clean-up or several devices get a clear figure once we know the scope.
No Fix, No Repair Fee applies to repair work we cannot complete, so you are not paying for a clean-up that did not work.
