Do you remember, a few months ago, I told you about a friend of mine called Kelly, who’d had a rather worrying call from a company in Bengal: basically, the company were trying to con Kelly into giving them remote access to her machine.

Now, ok, granted, others have covered this sort of thing.
And a lot better than I have.
