Latest internet scam!

Just wanted to let everyone know of the latest scam going around. Some of you may already know about this, but for those that don't...

You may get a call from someone claiming to be part of a tech support company. They will have a heavy Indian accent. They will inform you that they have been getting notices that your computer is infected with a virus/viruses and has also been transmitting the viruses around the internet. Eventually they will direct you to the website www.ammyy.com to download some remote desktop software so they can "have a technician show you the viruses and clean them up". I need not say what they really are doing.

A bonus kicker, my dad was talking to them and he asked how he knew this wasn't a virus, and they said "That's impossible, this is the mother computer" referring to a supposed central computer that controls the internet.

Anyhoo, just thought I would let you all know what is up on the internets. They have called twice already. Im hoping for a 3rd so I can mess with them some more.
