It's a scam. IP address is always public anyway. ISP, and geographical
location can be gained from a simple Whois lookup on your IP address and
cross referenced against various geo databases to find your location (only
as near as the town/city you live in, if your ISP has provided that info in
their geo data).

The system details and link to your C drive are all done within your
browser. It's not information that is publicly accessible, it uses some
script and controls to push that data into your browser but only you can see
it.

The whole point of this scam is to sell Evidence Eliminator. You'll likely
find that you buy it, run it, and find it makes absolutely no difference -
EE simply removes temporary internet files, cookies, and some registry
entries.
