A careful, permission-based process.

Before work begins, Neighbor & Main confirms the problem, the approved scope, access needed, known data risks, and expected price. If the diagnosis changes the recommendation, work pauses for your approval. Completed work is tested and summarized.

Should I turn the computer off after a scam?

If someone had remote access or you see suspicious activity, disconnect it from Wi-Fi or Ethernet and stop using it for banking or email until it is assessed.

Can you recover money lost to a scam?

No technology provider can promise that. Contact your bank or card issuer immediately, preserve evidence, and report the incident through the appropriate official channels.
