Default Indian Microsoft phone scam

Has anyone else had a phone call from India pretending to be from Microsoft?And,more importantly,has anyone been dumb enough to give them remote access to their computer like my 12 year old daughter did?
They got no money out of me once I realised what was going on but they did have remote access to the computer for about 20 minutes.I cancelled my internet banking immediately but what other potential danger is there?
