Confused about what computer to buy? I can help you find your perfect match! I don't sell computers, i find you the best computer for you at the best deal.

Public Service Announcement I would like your help in spreading the word about these computer related scams. 1. A computer company will NEVER call you about your computer EVER! ... 2. There are basically NO computer brand companies that you can call for help. If you search for a phone number the top results will most likely be ads for scam companies. I have heard, dealt with, and had to protect my own family from scams like this. People allowing a company access to their computer, paying them to fix problems can leave them with virus or at risk for personal information to be stolen in the process. Here is my offer - I do not charge for a five minute phone call, I am happy to answer questions or talk through a situation with you (or a loved one). If you are worried about a problem give me a call and lets work through it together. I hate to see someone scammed over something that shouldn’t cost you money or time to fix. I have experience working with seniors and helping them stay safe while online. Joel [email protected] 705-788-7059
