    I have my doubts about this. The scammers computer would have to be running a remote desktop daemon for him to connect back.
    the beauty of a Remote Desktop connection is that it when you know how to fully use(abuse) it, it is a two way connection and I had access to his system as well.

    I heard something very similar in the final season of Dexter. The truth is, it doesn't work like that out of the box, unless he is using a remote code execution exploit against the client. That post is either leaving out half the story or is completely made up.

    Complete BS. Low level format the hard drive on a running machine from within Windows ?! An "IT specialist" who leaves port 3389 permanently open on his router ?!
