I just got a call from an unknown party on Skype with the name NOTIFICATION - PROTECTION EXPIRED.
I answered it the hope that it was someone trying to tell me I have viruses and that I should pay them money to remove them.
I was close as it turned out to be a recorded message telling me that my essential security software was out of date and told me to go to http://www.helpgw.com
Like a kid in a candy store I immediately went there with my MAC and that is where I was confronted with this wonderful screen:
As you can see, this is a lovely picture of a Windows XP desktop. Nothing like my MAC at all.
If you are encountered by this Skype Caller, answer if you want, but
DO NOT DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN BLOCK THE CALLER AND REPORT AS ABUSE!!!
Just remember, if you are unsure about anything, speak to someone you know and trust.
If you don't have anyone then call me.
