That scam still going around? I had that one last year, my computer was in for repair a few days and the stupid phone call, told that the computer I had on now had a virus and it could be fixed, I said when did they trace this virus on my computer, he said we checked on the last opening this morning, clever buggers I said it is Sunday and the computer repair shop is still awaiting a spare part and the shop is closed, also a new computer on order is being delivered 2 days time, now feck off.
