⚠️ Public Safety Notice: Ongoing Scam Targeting Local Families

Important Notice to Our Community

IT Tech LLC is issuing this public warning to inform visitors, customers, and the local community about an active and growing scam operation that has already caused real financial and emotional harm to residents — including members of our own family and client circle.

This notice is being published not for publicity, but as a documented effort to protect others, raise awareness, and prompt action from authorities and media outlets.

What Is Happening

We have identified a recurring pattern of fraudulent activity involving manipulated investment schemes and coordinated psychological pressure tactics. Victims are often gradually groomed, misled with false assurances, and pushed into sending increasing amounts of money under the pretense of lucrative opportunities or urgent legal/financial situations.

These operations are extremely sophisticated. They do not resemble classic “easy-to-spot” scams. Instead, they are designed to build trust over time, exploit emotions, and isolate victims from objective advice.

Why We Are Publishing This

We are making this statement public for three critical reasons:

To warn potential victims before further damage occurs.

To establish clear documentation that this threat is real, ongoing, and affecting vulnerable individuals.

To call for intervention by law enforcement, regulatory bodies, and investigative journalism.

This situation goes beyond a private dispute. It represents a concerning pattern being exploited to harm emotionally vulnerable and financially inexperienced individuals.

Impact

The human cost extends far beyond money. Victims commonly experience stress, shame, anxiety, family breakdown, and long-term financial insecurity. In our case, this has directly affected close family members and caused significant emotional distress.

Silence protects the scammers. Transparency protects the public.

Our Call to Action

We formally request:

Increased regulatory oversight and legal accountability for such schemes

Stronger enforcement and prosecution of identified networks

Greater media attention to expose operational patterns

Protection measures for at-risk populations

We are actively compiling evidence and cooperating with appropriate authorities. If you believe you or someone you know has been targeted by a similar scheme, we encourage you to report it immediately.

How to Protect Yourself

Never send money based on emotional pressure or urgency

Verify all investment platforms through official regulatory databases

Consult an independent legal or financial advisor

Report suspicious activity to state or federal agencies

Ongoing Updates

This page will be updated as the situation develops. Our goal is prevention, awareness, and accountability.

If you are a journalist, investigator, or representative of an oversight agency and require documentation or formal statements, please contact us directly.

⚠️ Special Notice for Seniors and Non-Technical Users

Please Read Carefully

Many scam operations specifically target seniors by pretending to represent well-known technology companies such as Geek Squad, Microsoft, Apple Support, Amazon, or your internet provider .

These callers may sound professional and convincing. They often claim:

Your computer is infected or sending viruses

Your bank account or email has been breached

Your subscription is about to expire

Your device is part of illegal activity

Their goal is to pressure you into allowing remote access to your computer.

🚫 Do NOT do the following:

Do NOT engage in long conversations with unsolicited tech support callers

Do NOT install software like AnyDesk, TeamViewer, UltraViewer, or similar tools at their request

Do NOT provide passwords, bank details, or personal information

Do NOT allow remote control of your computer

Once access is granted, scammers can:

Steal files and photos

Access banking and email accounts

Lock your computer and demand payment

Install hidden malware for long-term surveillance

✅ What you SHOULD do instead:

Hang up immediately

Do not click any links or open attachments they provide

Contact a trusted family member or local IT professional

If you are concerned, call your known IT provider directly using a phone number you already trust (from a bill, business card, or their official website)

If you are unsure, IT Tech LLC offers free guidance for seniors to help verify whether a threat is real.

Remember

No legitimate company will ever:

Call you out of the blue to fix your computer

Demand access to your device without your request

Pressure you with fear or urgency

If it feels rushed, frightening, or secretive — it is almost always a scam.
