Just received another of those SCAM calls. The man, who had an very strong accent, told me that he was "calling from my computer company, and they had asked him to phone me and have me turn on my computer so they could eliminate the virus which had attacked my machine. If I did not do this, my computer would crash completely within 2 hours."

I asked him what computer company. He said "Yours". I told him that my phone company was tracing all calls to my number because of SCAM phone calls, and he immediately hung up.

Just an FYI for the rest of you. Don't fall for this one.
