I have, actually.
A scam is despiccable in my book, no matter how deserving the victim.

what scam? the customer wanted them to work on their computer, so they did, and charged the customer accordingly.

The son scammed her. He told her she needed to disinfect peripherals. The tech is just allowing that to happen and charging a not listening to the tech fee.

The tech is just allowing that to happen

Yes, the tech, who is also in a position of trust on the matter, is therefore part of said scam. Twist it all you want, the tech lied and benefited.
