I had the scariest thing happen the other day.  I went to a reputable site to find a phone number.  Apparently another layer was put over that site with a phone number, which as I recall was in red.  When I called the rather strange number, the fellow said he could help me with the incorrect order I had received if I would give him access to my computer.  I hung up!  Looking up that site again, that red part was no longer there and I found the correct number.  So, what’s with that?
