I've never gotten that particular alert, but I remember a while back, I got one of those "Your PC has been locked" pop-ups on the WC site.

I know you probably know this, but never call those numbers like the one that popped up for you. 100% scam.

I hope you really didn't pay them.
What did you pay with?
