There is another scam where they call and claim to be from microsoft and need to fix your computer because the games installed had messed it up. I read in our local paper that someone allowed them access and they took over the computer and demanded $600 to "put it back". He paid. When I got the call I told the guy I was Googling the phone number and calling police as we were speaking. He says "no google, no google " and hung up. I suspect he was Pakistani or Indian from accent. Police department says don't answer any calls with unfamiliar numbers or numbers not in your cell phone.
