Letting technical support into your computer

Dear Smart IT people,

I am frequently in the situation of allowing technical support onto my computer eg Adobe.  I never save passwords or user ids to my computer. I worry that if I then later pay bills from my computer that I may have a problem with security. What do you think? Many thanks!

As long as you go looking for them, and find the right people, ok.  But you should automatically assume that when they contact you and want you to do something, they are nigerian scammers out to steal your identity and dollars.

Because no matter how much they look and act like Adobe tech support, they are probably nigerian scammers out to steal your identity and dollars.
