Please be aware that a telephone scam is now going around.Twice this week they are saying my ISP provider has been compromised, and they will be disconnecting my internet. Hang up, do not do anything they say. This is in the northeast area as i believe they go from one area to another. It starts with a telephone no 02. Be careful.
