How to prevent issues caused by GoToAssist scam?

What is GoToAssist scam?

Flipalbum 7.0 pro serial. GoToAssist (now called RescueAssist) is a legitimate remote support platform that is used mainly by customer support organizations and support teams, however, scammers also use this platform. In this case, they attempt to trick people into downloading and installing GoToAssist using a tech-support scam web page. This site implies that visitors' computers are infected with viruses and encourages them to use the aforementioned software to solve the problem/remove detected viruses. Most people do not visit these websites intentionally - they are redirected to them by potentially unwanted applications (PUAs).

According to this tech-support scam, the user's Mac computer (MacOs) is infected with three viruses: two malware infections and one phishing/spyware infection. It is stated that these malicious programs might put personal and banking information at risk. To remove malware, users are encouraged to download and install GoToAssist so that scammers can connect to their computers remotely and 'help' to remove detected malicious software. Typically, scammers perform fake scans and try to sell various computer protection packages, which usually cost in the of region of $200 and $1000. They might also attempt to install various PUAs (supposedly anti-virus/anti-spyware software) and encourage users to purchase them (pay for software activation). This particular scam page advertises an unwanted application called Cleanup My Mac. Note that tech-support scams should never be trusted, and the software advertised on them should never be downloaded or installed. Scammers might use programs such as GoToAssist to install other malware such as ransomware - these programs cause data and financial loss. If your browser opens a scam web page, the best option is to ignore the information included and close it.

Scam sites are opened by PUAs installed on browsers or operating systems, however, this is not the only problem that they cause. PUAs gather data and display ads. They collect IP addresses, addresses of opened pages, entered search queries, geolocations, and other information. Developers send the data to other parties (potentially, cyber criminals) who misuse it to generate revenue. Additionally, PUAs display unwanted ads (in the form of coupons, banners, surveys, pop-ups, etc.) - if clicked, these open malicious pages or even lead to download/installation of other PUAs.

GoToAssist is one of a number of programs that scammers try to trick people into installing through scam sites. Another example is TeamViewer. Typically, these scam pages display virus alerts to trick visitors into believing that their computers are infected with a malicious program. To remove the programs, they are encouraged to download and install (or even purchase) certain software. Their main goal is to extort money from unsuspecting people. Examples of similar scam pages are apple.com-scan-mac[.]live, 'We Detected Unwanted Pop-Ups on Your Mac', and apple.com-shield-devices[.]live. In most cases, these sites are opened by PUAs, which are advertised as 'useful' and 'legitimate'. In fact, they open scam sites (and others), display ads, and gather information.

How did potentially unwanted applications install on my computer?

People often download and install PUAs through intrusive ads or together with regular software. They are often tricked into these unwanted downloads or installations when software developers use a marketing called 'bundling' - they include PUAs into download or installation set-ups of other programs. Information relating to this additional software is usually hidden in 'Custom', 'Advanced' and other similar parts of the set-ups. Furthermore, many people download/install programs without checking the available options, or they click intrusive ads - this causes unwanted downloads and installations.

How to avoid installation of potentially unwanted applications?

Download your files and programs using official websites and direct download links. Channels such as third party downloaders, dubious, unofficial websites, Peer-to-Peer networks (and other similar sources) should not be trusted. Do not install programs using third party installers. Furthermore, all downloads and installations should be performed properly. If a setup includes 'Custom', 'Advanced', and other settings, ensure that you check them (they often contain offers to download and install unwanted programs). Any such offers should be dismissed before completing the download or installation. It is not safe to click intrusive ads, especially if they are displayed on dubious websites. They can open other, potentially malicious pages or lead to unwanted downloads and installations. Typically, browsers display ads and open dubious pages when there are unwanted apps installed on them. To prevent this situation, uninstall unwanted, suspicious extensions, plug-ins, and add-ons. Also remove any unknown or unwanted programs installed on the operating system. If your computer is already infected with PUAs, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for macOS to automatically eliminate them.
