Wistron says new US plants will be ready for Nvidia's server production next year
By Wen-Yee Lee
TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwanese electronics manufacturer Wistron said on Friday that its new U.S. manufacturing facilities for its customer Nvidia would be ready next year and the firm was in talks with potential other customers.
Part of the facilities will be used by Nvidia to support its plan to build artificial intelligence servers worth up to $500 billion in the U.S. over the next four years.
The U.S. firm said in April it planned to build supercomputer manufacturing plants in Texas, partnering with Foxconn in Houston and Wistron in Dallas. Both sites are expected to increase production within 12 to 15 months.
"I believe it's exactly in line with what the customer announced. All our progress will follow the customer's lead,' Wistron CEO Jeff Lin said in his first public comments since Nvidia's announcement.
He said the company was in discussion with other customers to use the U.S. facilities, which will produce high-performance computing and AI-related products, declining to disclose their names.
Wistron's board approved a total investment of $500 million in its new U.S. subsidiary to support business development and strategic growth in the U.S.
Commenting on U.S. restrictions on exports of advanced chips to China, Lin said demand outside of China remained very strong.
"We expect to grow alongside our customers ... As for developments in the Middle East, most of them are essentially our indirect customers."
The United Arab Emirates and the U.S. signed an agreement this week for the Gulf country to build the largest AI campus outside the U.S., in a deal that according to sources could involve purchase of 500,000 of Nvidia's most advanced AI chips per year starting in 2025.
As the U.S. threatens sweeping tariffs on many of its trading partners, Wistron said it would also consider producing notebooks in Mexico, noting that such products would not face tariffs under the United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement.

Specifically, Defendants: (1) misrepresented the capabilities of the Company's risk-based pricing models; (2) issued materially misleading statements regarding the Company's profit share revenue; (3) failed to disclose the Company's 2021 and 2022 vintage loans had become worth significantly less than their corresponding outstanding loan balances; and (4) misrepresented the underperformance of the Company's 2023 and 2024 vintage loans.

How to tell if a login alert is real or a scam
Online scams thrive on the urgency and fear of their victims. If you've ever been a victim of a scam, you'd know that bad actors often try to rush you into taking action by creating a sense of fear. A scammer may call you impersonating a government agency and claim your Social Security number has been linked to drug trafficking. A phishing email might ask you to update your tax details or claim you've won a lottery or a free product, all to get you to click a malicious link. A more effective tactic scammers use is sending fake login alerts. These are warnings that someone has logged into your account, prompting you to take immediate action. This method works well because legitimate services like Google, Apple, Netflix and Facebook also send these types of notifications when someone, including you, logs in from a new device. It can be tricky to tell the difference. As Robert from Danville asks, "I constantly get in my spam junk folder emails saying 'someone has logged into your account.' Is this spam? legitimate? concerning? How do I know? How to avoid wasting time checking? How do I check?" Thanks for writing to us, Robert. I completely understand how tricky it can be to figure out whether these messages are legitimate or just another scam attempt. Let's break down what these urgent warnings usually look like and go over a few ways you can stay safe. Scammers often pose as login alerts from Google, Apple, Meta or even your bank, complete with official-looking logos, because fear is effective. But not every alert is a scam. In many cases, these notifications are legitimate and can help you detect unauthorized access to your accounts. Let's focus on the scam side first. Login alert scams have been around for a while. Early reports date back to 2021, and the trend has persisted since then. In 2022, reports surfaced that scammers were impersonating Meta and sending phishing emails to users. One such email used a clean layout with minimal text. It avoided the usual scare tactics and stuck to a simple message. But that is not always the case. A common red flag in phishing attempts is the tendency to overload the email with unnecessary details. These messages often include cluttered formatting, excessive explanations and an increasing number of typos or design errors. One phishing email simply gets to the point: Someone tried to Iog into Your Account, User lD A user just logged into your Facebook account from a new device Samsung S21. We are sending you this email to verify it's really you. Thanks, The Facebook Team What's concerning now is that poor grammar is no longer a reliable sign of a scam. Thanks to AI, even those with limited English skills can write emails that sound polished and professional. As a result, many phishing messages today read just like legitimate emails from trusted companies. Receiving a phishing email is not the real issue. The real problem starts when you click on it. Most of these emails contain links that lead to fake login pages, designed to look exactly like platforms such as Facebook, Google or your bank. If you enter your credentials there, they go directly to the scammer. In some cases, simply clicking the link can trigger a malware download, especially if your browser is outdated or your device lacks proper security. Once inside, attackers can steal personal information, monitor your activity or take control of your accounts. Real login notifications do exist; they're just much less scary. A genuine alert from Google, Apple or Microsoft will come from an official address (for example, no-reply@ or security@ and use consistent branding. The tone is factual and helpful. For instance, a legit Google security alert might say, "We detected a login from a new sign-in to your Google Account on a Pixel 6 Pro device. If this was you, you don't need to do anything. If not, we'll help you secure your account." It may include a "Check activity" button, but that link always redirects to a address, and it won't prompt you to reenter your password via the email link. Similarly, Apple notes it will never ask for passwords or verification codes via email. 1. Don't click any links or attachments and use strong antivirus software: Instead, manually log in to the real site (or open the official app) by typing the URL or using a bookmarked link. This guarantees you're not walking into a scammer's trap. The FTC recommends this: if you have an account with that company, contact them via the website or phone number you know is real, not the info in the email. The best way to safeguard yourself from malicious links that install malware, potentially accessing your private information, is to have antivirus software installed on all your devices. This protection can also alert you to phishing emails and ransomware scams, keeping your personal information and digital assets safe. Get my picks for the best 2025 antivirus protection winners for your Windows, Mac, Android and iOS devices. 2. Remove your data from the internet: Scammers are able to send you targeted messages because your data, like your email address or phone number, is already out there. This often happens due to past data breaches and shady data brokers. A data removal service can help clean up your digital trail by removing your information from public databases and people-search sites. It's not a quick fix, but over time, it reduces how easily scammers can find and target you. While no service can guarantee the complete removal of your data from the internet, a data removal service is really a smart choice. They aren't cheap, and neither is your privacy. These services do all the work for you by actively monitoring and systematically erasing your personal information from hundreds of websites. It's what gives me peace of mind and has proven to be the most effective way to erase your personal data from the internet. By limiting the information available, you reduce the risk of scammers cross-referencing data from breaches with information they might find on the dark web, making it harder for them to target you. Check out my top picks for data removal services here. Get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web. 3. Check your account activity: Go to your account's security or sign-in page. Services like Gmail, iCloud or your bank let you review recent logins and devices. If you see nothing unusual, you're safe. If you do find a strange login, follow the site's process (usually changing your password and logging out all devices). Even if you don't find anything odd, change your password as a precaution. Do it through the official site or app, not the email. Consider using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords. 4. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): This is your best backup. With 2FA enabled, even if someone has your password, they can't gain access without your phone and an additional second factor. Both Google and Apple make 2FA easy and say it "makes it harder for scammers" to hijack your account. 5. Report suspicious emails: If you receive a suspicious email claiming to be from a specific organization, report it to that organization's official support or security team so they can take appropriate action. You shouldn't have to vet every sketchy email. In fact, your email's spam filters catch most phishing attempts for you. Keep them enabled, and make sure your software is up to date so that malicious sites and attachments are blocked. Still, the most powerful filter is your own awareness. You're definitely not alone in this. People receive these spammy login scares every day. By keeping a cool head and following the steps above, you're already ahead of the game. Have you ever encountered a suspicious email or phishing attempt? How did you handle it, and what did you learn from the experience?
