Windows 10 Warning

In what seems like a constant stream of warnings, today we're advising everyone to be cautious with any email about Windows 10 (both on TSA and personal machines). There are bad people trying to squeeze you for money by offering you Windows 10 via an email.

WINDOWS 10 WON'T BE ACCESSIBLE FROM AN EMAIL - IT IS A SCAM

Windows 10 upgrades will be prompted through the operating system (e.g. you won't get an email). While Windows 10 was released a few days ago, it will roll out slowly and most TSA machines won't get the update in the foreseeable future. This is because of how Microsoft have chosen to do the rollout.   

If you're interested in learning more look here. Alternatively a quick Google search (for Windows 10 email scam) will show many results.
