Haven't laughed out loud in days.

A stranger on the end of a phone call tells you your PC is infected, and you should download and install a RC server 
so it can be fixed.

Heard of a lot of this in Scotland recently.  Although, everyone I've spoken to that's been called has said that the 
call quality sounds like it's originating from abroad.  A couple of people reported potentially the same guy calling, 
'Paul' from Microsoft....
