Recently a new scam has emerged, involving calls from fake call centres, and pretending to be from Your ISP/Windows/Microsoft.
The scam uses social engineering to trick users over the phone into believing they are infected, then tries to get them to download fake/rogue software as well as connect to a remote 'support' session and charge them money for the software.
