During the conversation you are advised that they are calling from Microsoft/a telco/etc, and they ask for remote access to your system to "fix it". Simple yet sophisticated. I don't know much beyond that, I've only strung them along until they twig that I'm on to them, then they hang up, to try another time. One time I had 3 calls the same day, every call has been an Asian accent. Not sure but I've been told that if they get access they download software (key logger or other viral) or search for banking details.
