If it can be used, it can be abused.

Scammers will use anything they can to make their scams appear more legitimate.  This includes abusing many legitimate services.  For example, Western Union offer a service where people can be sent money if they lose their ID/get robbed.  To do so, the person sending the money gives the person collecting the money a test question and answer.  Have the MTCN (basically the transaction number) and the right question and answer and you can collect the money without the need for ID.  Scammers use this as a way to collect money from their victims without having to give their real details.  Internet “follow me” numbers are great, as you can give a person a number and they can reach you on it no matter where in the world you are.  Scammers of course use these to appear in another country, typically using the +4470 number.  Screen recording software is incredibly useful for making captures showing how things are done on a computer without having to resort to long lists explainign each step.  Unfortunately it’s also incredibly useful for blackmail scammers to record the webcam of a person in a compromising situation.  There was even a time (though we don’t see it much anymore) where scammers would use text phones – designed to help people without the ability to speak – as a way to disguise their voice.  So remember, if there’s a way to abuse a legitimate service or product, scammers will find it.
