Looks like India is becoming famous for wrong reasons lately. First, India was listed as the spamming hub and now for running a phone call scam about computer viruses. According to the Guardian, the scam is running quietly since 2008 from call centres based in Kolkata. The scam starts this way: the phone rings at someone's home, and the caller – usually with an Indian accent – asks for the householder, quoting their name and address before saying "I'm calling for Microsoft. We've had a report from your internet service provider of serious virus problems from your computer."
