There is one where they can lock you computer screen and a message flashes on your screen saying it is from Strathclyde Police saying you have been visiting ilegal porn sites and if you give your credit card details they will fine you £100 and unlock your screen.

She thought he was somewhat legit because he told her where to go on her computer to see that she did have viruses (which anyone who knows computers can tell you where to look, but my mom isn't one of those people) and then they wanted to clean it for her for a 'small fee'. Thankfully she told them no and she wanted to check with her computer literate son-in-law before doing anything! We told her to not give ANYTHING to ANYONE on the phone, at your door, etc!
