Scammers! (not to be mistaken by Webfusion owned by 123-reg)
This company places popup ads on websites informing their victims that they have a virus, the victim then calls Web Fusion and they talk their victim through the steps needed to enable this fake company to establish a remote session with the victims computer. After establishing remote connection the fake and self titled 'Microsoft Certified Technicians' run what the victims see as a scan (by bringing up Command and running the tree ( dir /s ) command) as well as other ways such as showing the victim 'Event Viewer' (which contains computer logs and errors (which are all normal to have) they state the customer has infections such as 'KoobFace' all these tactics scare their victims into buying fake Tech support packages that start from $199.99 and go up to around a $1k. If this is not paid or even if it is paid the technician normally places a "Syskey" on the victims computer then closes their pc down, this in turn locks the victim out of their computer (which they will have to reinstall windows or restore to an earlier restoration point). They expect the victims to enter their credit card details and personal details on Notepad too, which is very insecure.
