Sorry, but you have been scammed. If you allowed them access to your computer, consider it compromised and restore it using a backup that predates the access by the criminals. If you divulged financial information, contact your bank to determine steps to deal with the fraud.
That is a scam. That scam has been going around for a few months using various company names, but all the same action. Pay money and allow remote access to your computer where they install software, which can now compromise your information and security.
At this point you should get an external hard drive if you do not have one, backup your hard drive, then erase the internal drive and reinstall Mac OS X (the procedure depends on which Mac OS X you have). Then very carefully restore the backed up applications and data - care must be taken to not return the software that was planted to your hard drive.
No they are nor, they are fraudsters
I don't think they are as fraud as people think of them. I got an issue my designing software on Mac, I had to call them to visit my home. They did come and resolved the issues.
There are no viruses that infect you Mac.
Never pay anyone that contacts you like that.
Well, I have had good experience with their technicians. Can't complain!

Stockholm Syndrome, perhaps?
Is easytechy a reliable support for Mac OS ?
