Should I trust that new bank account in our Upper North Shore builder's email?

Payment redirection scams target big, expected transfers. Before you pay, call the builder on a number you already had. We check whether the email came through a compromised account and lock down your side so it cannot happen again.

Upper North Shore worries we hear

  • Builder, architect or school fee emails with suddenly changed bank details.
  • Upstairs study computers showing warnings that will not close.
  • Professionals working from home after a shared-document link asked for a password.
  • Grandparents' tablets with sign-in alerts from places they have never been.
  • The price for checks and lockdown is agreed with you upfront.

Our first steps together

  • We help you confirm the payment request by phone before anything moves.
  • Your email is checked for logins, forwarding rules and connected apps.
  • Then remaining devices are reviewed, remotely or on a visit.

Upper North Shore pockets we visit

We visit family homes and home offices through the Wahroonga area, the Pymble area and the Gordon area, along to the Killara area, the Lindfield area and the Roseville area. Email checks often start remotely the same day, with a visit when the study computer or family tablets need a closer look.

FAQ

Common questions about Upper North Shore IT help

Yes. We visit family homes and home offices through the Wahroonga area, the Pymble area, the Gordon area and the Lindfield area. Many email checks can begin remotely the same day.

If the study computer or a tablet may still have something unwanted on it, a visit makes the check clearer.

Call your bank immediately and ask them to try to recall the transfer. The sooner they hear, the better the chance.

Then call us. We check your email for signs of access, help you work out whether the sender's account was the weak point, and set up sign-in codes on yours.

Ring the person on a number you already have, not the one in the email, and confirm the details out loud before paying.

We set that up as a household habit, add a note near the computer, and tighten email security so lookalike requests are easier to spot.

A single inbox check has a simple price, and a review of every family device gets one written figure, both agreed beforehand.

If unwanted software cannot be cleared from a computer, No Fix, No Repair Fee applies to the repair.
