Tricked by Tech Live Connect and Advanced Mac Cleaner

I got a virus warning in my browser today and was urged to install a software called “Advanced Mac Cleaner”. The Software then asked me to call Tech Live Connect to activate. The number was a German toll free number 08001811266. A guy called Manish Tiwari answered my call, then told me about multiple problems on my computer and urged me to pay 199,- EUR.

Don’t believe them! They are fake!! I installed a virus scanner from apple store and my computer is all clean!

I then found this article:
