Got rung tonight from a Harry Curry saying he was from Microsoft.

HMM Microsoft dont ring people so I suggested what he could do to himself with the hand using the phone for entertainment and hung up.

The scam is outlined in the link but basically they tell you your computer has

faults and to go to a certain website and allow remote access and they will fix it

They muck around and it costs you money for them to do it and they also plant a keylogger or similar on your machine to hook all your passwords and details
DONT EVEN LISTEN TO THEM. HANG UP.
