Just took my dad back to his house in Scotland after having him down south for a month and he has received the a letter like the following - https://twitter.com/whatevillurks/st...58806131896321
This is just an image of the letter - not my twitter ect just to show.
I have checked his router just as an aside and it has upnp is off and firewall on...he doesn't actually have a computer ect I have set up a box in his bedroom for him to be able to watch footie ect.
Im bloody fuming tbh...he is 83 and if I wasn't here this letter (Which incidentally refers you to paid for security fixes and anti virus ect...so its marketing which I think is the type of thing you would get from a scam marketer)
If I wasn't here he would have been panicking like a goodun unplugging shit ect ect. I wonder how many non tech savy have been conned into buying these services. Apparently some people have been told by virgin cs that if they don't buy the software and secure their pc properly then they "may" be cut off. Really bad form from VM.
