Unfortunately my neighbour has just been sucked in paid them $250, now I have to format his pc, told him its a well known scam and to cancel his credit card, whats more im sure i've told him about this scam before!  Some people just don't learn.  If ISP's could activate some sort of scam warning/block on sites like logmein and other remote access sites these scammers use, it would stop a lot of people being sucked in.  Its simple, eg... someone visits logmein.com in their browser and immediately is redirected to a scam warning page hosted by the ISP, logmein is noted as a legitimate service and is used by lots of people, however its also used unlawfully by these scammers, the user is given the option to continue and/or opt-out completely from getting the warning each time they visit the site.
