Malware Scams usually occur by infecting the victim's device (computer or phone) with malicious software that can carry out a number of dubious activities including showing pop-ups, stealing personal details, login details and files. Some new types of malware can also turn the victim's computer into a Bitcoin mining machine thereby slowing it down greatly to the point that it may become unusable.
