A tech support fraud is a telephonic or e-mail cheating trick by which

associated with a big brand like Microsoft. Tech support fraud usually
begins with calls or emails that represent them as from a reputed IT
support company like Zero Effort Networking. Such scams can also
come out in the form of pop-ups on web pages and instruct you to
call for a support service in order to fix the technical issues in your
system.
