It's very easy to pick this worm up, and these people have all of our info which is b.s. I won't be on the computer much tomorrow at all.
I guess the criminals already had some stuff (watches and camera) delivered to an address right here, one of the Phoenix suburbs. AZ is the capitol of ID theft, so it's kinda scary.

I heard about that computer "worm" too! Yikes. On April Fools day too.

Actually, I'm afraid to do banking on line. I am glad your friend did'nt loose much and was smart enough not to do what they wanted.
Very scary stuff,
