There is a scam like that going on in my area right now. The caller says that their "free trial antivirus software" has expired, and that they are now required to pay for a full subscription. They get people's credit card numbers, and/or they then get people to go to a website and download software that allows the scam artist to go through their computer and take information, and control it remotely. Don't ever listen to these telephone scam artists! You did the right thing by reporting that, Shezbut, I hope these people can be stopped. At the very least, they will stop calling you
