  •      Avoid accessing account through any email link as it can be risky. If the email turns out to be fraudulent then cyber criminal will have access to your account information.
  •     Avoid having single password or PINs for accessing all your online accounts, this can again lead to identity theft.
  •     Avoid clicking on pop-ups that says “Your PC is Insecure”, such links can have malware automatically downloaded to your PC.
  •     Avoid downloading free stuffs such as screen saver and smiley faces. Such things could be very dangerous to your PC and you will soon notice it has turned slow then earlier.
  •     Be careful with those phishing mails, they may create a sense of urgency as “Your Account is in Risk” or an “Unauthorized transaction has taken place” so send your account details. Remember any bank will not ask your account detail via mail.
  •     Make sure you always have updated antivirus software in place.
  •     You have won a lottery and or an IPod are the common terms used by spammers to trap you, avoid falling to such traps.
  •     Always have a habit of not clicking on phishing email, the goal of phisher is to fool you for entering your details into something that actually appears to be safe and secure, but in reality is just a fake site set up by the scammer.
  •     Avoid giving your full name, home address, phone number, Social Security number, passwords, names of family members, credit card numbers online. Best is to remain anonymous and enjoy surfing
  •     Never forget to scan the attachment you receive in your mail box. Virus attacks are mostly through such attachments.

Tech 2 You scheduled the appointment after hours for my convenience and didn’t charge me more than their regular rate.

I called Tech 2 You and was prepared to hear a quote of hundreds of dollars as I had gotten from the 2 other companies. The technician arrived and about 45 minutes later he had my system running better than it did when it was new! The charge was $50.00 and he never opened the computer case.

I decided to enter the world of computers. As a novice, I made many mistakes, which meant disconnecting the computer, struggling to take it to a repair shop, waiting days until they found the time to fix it, struggling to get it home again and reconnecting the computer.

    No more is that necessary. Seeing an ad that SAID TECH 2 YOU would come to your home, I made the call. They were kind, respectful, understanding and a pleasure to talk with. The most important part was they kept their word. I’ll probably make many more mistakes but no longer do I have the struggle of getting the computer to a repair shop/ I really appreciate the work they have done for me and it’s a pleasure to welcome them to my home.

You did not make me feel pressured in buying your product. You assured me that you would set up any computer I bought. Also, you gave me advise on what to look out for and you taught me how to use my computer. You were courteous, well mannered, clean cut and respectable. You did not talk down to me. You spoke to me and in plain English. You would explain something over again if I didn’t understand the first time. You made me feel comfortable with my using my computer instead of being scared to use it. You were respectable to my children, and that’s an A+ in my books! When I have a question or concern, you are right there to give me tips to fix the problem or you come out `ASAP` to fix it. I’ve never experienced the personal touch of a businessman until now. You care about your customers and it shows. I cannot stop talking to others about you. Also I could go on and on about the quality of your business ethnics. Thanks so much for everything you’ve done for my family and in the help of our computer adventure!
