Default Possible Scam - Thoughts?

My Fiancee just received an interesting call from "tech-optimizers," asking about her HP computer that runs windows vista.

The man said his name was Brad Johnson, yet had a thick Indian accent. He told my fiancee that she had an undetectable virus on her computer, and kept asking her to log onto it so that he could help walk her through the steps to clear the virus.

She didn't log onto her computer, and the guy was very pushy, asking her to log on and when she didn't he asked if he could have a time that she would be logging on so that he could call back and walk her through the process.

I called scam as soon as I heard this, thoughts?
