At least it isn't a call from Fish at Microsoft. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpPLeqHfPCc t -----Original Message----- From: full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk [mailto:full-disclosure-bounces () lists grok org uk] On Behalf Of Andy McKnight Sent: Wednesday, July 20, 2011 7:26 AM To: Dave Cc: full-disclosure () lists grok org uk Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] Phone Scam
A stranger on the end of a phone call tells you your PC is infected, and you should download and install a RC server so it can be fixed.
Heard of a lot of this in Scotland recently. Although, everyone I've spoken to that's been called has said that the call quality sounds like it's originating from abroad. A couple of people reported potentially the same guy calling, 'Paul' from Microsoft.... Andy. _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
