CrowdStrike Windows Scam Alert: Hackers Are Posing as Support Staff to Exploit Users – Details

CrowdStrike Windows Outage: Only a Short Time Since Windows Users have recovered from reboot crashes and Blue Screen of Death caused by Mob attack updates, but as things stand, there’s another big concern for users: hackers are trying to break into Windows systems. That’s right, taking advantage of the situation, hackers are trying to trick unsuspecting victims into believing that they’re from CrowdStrike support—to provide support and resolve their issues.

As confirmed by CrowdStrike, the company has received report about malicious activity as hackers were found sending phishing emails posing as CrowdStrike support staff to Windows users, making phone calls, and even selling scripts as potential remedies to the situation.

CrowdStrike Outage: How to Stay Safe and Fix Your PC Yourself

CrowdStrike advises organizations to ensure that they only contact CrowdStrike representatives through “official channels.” Remember, hackers will do their best to convince you that they are a real customer service representative trying to troubleshoot your Blue Screen and Reboot issues, so you should make sure that you don’t fall for it and give them access to your systems.

Also, it’s worth noting that CrowdStrike has released a fix for the ‘BSOD’ reboot issue, and it should fix most of the 8.5 million PCs reported to be affected by the problematic update. If you still can’t fix your system, you can try Official Microsoft solution to troubleshoot.

The company also listed a number of websites that can be used to carry out this agenda:
