Security Essentials or Support Scam? - AVIEN article

An article for AVIEN, where I run an information resource focused on tech support scams (and another focused on ransomware).

Security Essentials or Support Scam? is about a malicious program flagged by Microsoft. It passes itself off as Security Essentials, but is used to manipulate victims into ringing a fake tech support line in order to fix a fake Blue Screen of Death.
