    I got a call on the house phone this evening from an Indian dude on this number 019476632176 saying my computer had a virus, when I replied that could not be as I fix computers he hung up so beware out there..

    This has been going on for over a year from this number more here:

    Thank you Carrickman, I'll pass that on to the family at home, they would be very susceptible to something like this I'm afraid, they're new internet users and not very savvy yet.
