You get a random phone call saying that to restore your internet
connectivity you should go to logmein123.com and enter some pass code... and
if you hang up or fail for some other reason the scammer then makes contact
again to ask for bank details insisting that they are needed to ensure your
internet connectivity.



To restore your internet connectivity you have to go to a website?????
That's a beauty!!!!!

It's remote desktop, like PCAnywhere, but via the web
Similar to GoToMyPC.com who had a major TV advertising campaign last year.
