One might presume now caps are out of bounds to the under 18s and probably spud guns to

Recently a news report highlights a issues surrounding criminal gangs set out to defraud.
Criminal gangs are cold calling over the telephone inviting individuals to purchase virus protection software.
Posing as a legitimate software organisation they offer fake security software that can be downloaded for around £30.
Combined with the credit card information gained from the sale along with stolen personal info
(eg) passwords & banking details they then set out to defraud the customer or commit more complex scams.
'Pickings are many' resulting in some gangs having even set up scam call centres employing as many as 400 staff to defraud en-masse.
Even some web masters have been tricked to advertising fake software online, fraudsters are paying as much as 80k to the advertisers
indicating that the scam profits must be greater than this amount.
Be Aware
