If you and I are 10 light years apart and have quantum entangled coins and flip them at the same time we will both produce a sequence of heads and tails that look completely random to both of us. You then get into your spaceship that moves a 99% the speed of light and visit me. After 10 years you arrive and when we compare notes we discover that we both produced the exact same (apparently) random sequence. No information was transfered faster than light so you can't use it for communication but an interaction of some sort faster than light must have occurred because we both got the same random sequence at the same time even though we were 10 light years apart; although we couldn't prove the sequences were the same until we communicated and that can only be done at the speed of light or less.
