Earlier today I had a phone call on the land line. The caller (Indian at a guess) told me that he was from Openreach. He continued to tell me my internet was playing up and it had shown up as a fault 'on their system'!
After 5 or 6 minutes playing a bit dumb & pretending I wasn't aware of a problem, but thanking him for pointing it out. I then asked what I could do to fix the problem, he gave me some technical shite that could make someone who wasn't at all knowledgeable believe him. After which, he said he could fix it there & then if I was happy for him to help me. After a little more conversation he said he would need to "let him log in to my computer & take control."
Two more words were said by me, the second one was OFF!!
Be careful out there!!!!
