0001222330131 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 0001222330131 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam number frequently claiming to be from Microsoft, warning of computer hacking or virus problems. Callers often pressure victims to grant remote access, seeking financial details or to install harmful software. Many report aggressive, rude or foul-mouthed behaviour when challenged. Numerous calls occur despite registration with the Telephone Preference Service, sometimes including silent or abandoned calls, and attempts to appear legitimate by using English names or convincing technical jargon. The calls target a wide demographic, including vulnerable elderly individuals. Recipients are strongly advised never to engage, to hang up immediately, and to report the number to authorities like Action Fraud. Wasting scammers’ time or blocking the number may deter further calls, but vigilance remains essential.

This number has called over 7000 times this year, so I'm guessing they’re trying to rip someone off big time? Just tell whoever it is “Your calls are being monitored by the police, please wait.” Then chuck your phone under a pillow or just hang up. Definitely don’t call them back.

This number just rang me up saying they were with Microsoft, but when I asked who I was speaking to, the person refused to give their name. To make matters worse, they started cursing at me with some really nasty words. Totally unprofessional!

Yep, they're doing it again. Got two calls last week and another one today. At about 11:23 I answered with a hello, hello, and then I heard them hanging up! Reading all the comments here, what a load of muppets! Could have said more but they just buggered off. I reckon they even read these reviews, wouldn’t surprise me at all. Proper sad that it’s like this.

12/01/2016 - Someone called claiming my PC was hacked and said Microsoft had sent alerts. They warned that without my permission to check things they’d shut down my computer. I kept him talking as long as I could to annoy him, then told him to go ahead and disable it if it was such a problem. He got really annoyed and just hung up. My machine is still fine. I only gave my name, no other personal info. He said he was from “Microsoft London,” but wouldn’t say much else. He was pretty pushy, kept telling me I didn’t know what I was doing by not allowing their ‘checks’. They even rang my parents, who don’t own any computers, so it’s definitely a scam. I try to hold the line to waste their time or just hang up on them. Half the time I wish I could set up an old laptop full of viruses and let them have at it, these people are proper nasty.

Got a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming there was something wrong with my computer. I was like, oh here we go again, but let him carry on cause I was kinda in the mood for a bit of banter. Then this cheeky bloke starts chatting to someone else in what sounded like Bangladesh in the background, and just hung up on me! I've had loads of calls doing the same spiel. Once I said I didn’t even own a computer and the caller accused me of lying - well, I was fibbing, but he didn't need to know that!

Got a call from this number, some bloke pretending to be from Microsoft. Asked if I owned my computer, then told me to switch it on. I said it already was, then he got rude real quick. When I wouldn’t play along, he started shouting horrible things, even called me a mother f###er. Total scam for sure. Said his name was James, sounded like he had an Indian/Pakistani accent - can’t really tell the difference anyway.

Got a call at 13:25 today from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from Microsoft Corporation. I told him Microsoft never calls random people, but he insisted his department was allowed to. I just hung up and let him ramble for a bit, then told him again that Microsoft doesn’t ring people. He tried to argue again, so I said I’d pass the call to my brother who’s a policeman (which isn’t true) and he quickly ended the call.

Got a call from a guy called David, sounded Asian. He was on about something wrong with my PC - right away I knew something was dodgy because a mate of mine got caught out by the same bloke just last week. Basically, the scam is he tricks you into letting him control your computer by guiding you through some steps, then suddenly wants your bank info to fix a fault he just ‘discovered’. Don’t fall for this, just block the number or ignore the call completely!

Got a call from an Asian guy named David, acting like I’m daft. Said there was a problem with my computer and tried to get me to let him have control. Luckily I’d heard about this scam from a mate he was targeting last week. The whole spiel is just to fish for your bank info! He keeps ringing though, gotta give him credit for persistence but zero for thinking I’d fall for it!

So, this bloke with an Asian accent rang me up yesterday, saying something about my computer. I told him I don’t actually own one, then he asked about my laptop. Again, I said I’ve got none. Then he asked what I use instead, and I just said… my finger and a vibrator. That was the end of that call, he hung up straight away! Doubt I’ll be hearing from him anytime soon, haha. Seriously, I’m curious how they even get hold of these numbers in the first place.

I received a phone call purportedly from Microsoft, claiming that my computer had been compromised. The chap on the line insisted that I should switch my device on right away. When I pressed him for some proof of their legitimacy, he mentioned some sort of reference number, but honestly, the call quality was dreadful. I decided to end the conversation, but he kept ringing back multiple times. I chose to ignore him each time. Honestly, it made me quite anxious. What a nuisance!

A guy with an asian accent named Kevin rang me claiming he was from Microsoft. He asked if I was the sole user of my PC and said it was full of viruses. When I inquired if he could sort it out, he said he’d guide me through fixing it. I just told him “Do you think I’m daft?” and ended the call. I’ve blocked that number now, but I’m certain they’ll just try calling from other ones.

Just yesterday, I had a call from a blocked number where the person said they were from TalkTalk and wanted me to download some software.

The person on the phone said his name was 'David' and claimed he was ringing from 'Microsoft Corporation' in 'London'. He told me hackers had got into my computer and infected it with viruses and that I had to turn on my computer so he could ‘fix’ it remotely. Yeah right, 'David'. Nice try. You’re not really 'David', you’re not calling from London, and I’m not daft. Added you straight to my block list.

I’ve been getting loads of calls lately, mostly dead silence or some bloke pretending to be from Microsoft about my computer being hacked. They usually use really common British names like John Smith or David Wilson, but their accents sound all wrong. They ring at all hours, mornings, evenings, you name it. These calls, along with those recorded ones about insulation grants, are driving me mad. I’ve signed up for the Telephone Preference Service, but it doesn’t seem to stop any of it.

Got a call from 0001222330131 at 12:20 today. Same old scam stuff about Microsoft, Windows and viruses. It’s a waste of time I know but I asked the guy, who had an Asian accent, why he couldnt find a real job and if he had any shame. Made me feel a bit better at least. Afterwards I reported it to the Action Fraud Line.

This kind of scam call is pretty common - they pretend to be from Microsoft support and all that. When I asked if he really thought I was that gullible, he just shouted 'you w#nk#r, f#ck off' and slammed the phone down!

About 7 minutes ago, this number gave me a ring. They’ve called a bunch of times in the past but mostly it’s just dead silence on the other end. Really frustrating.

Just got a call a short while ago, someone wanted to speak to a family member but when I told him they weren’t available, the chap with an Asian accent kept saying, "then who the hell are you, mam?" Honestly, it took me by surprise and I told him off for swearing before hanging up and walking away. This isn’t the first time this has happened either - another time, a woman was really aggressive and called me a liar! Honestly, these kinds of calls really ought to be put to an end. Enough is enough, please!

Isn’t there some sort of tech fix for all these annoying calls? It’s really upsetting for folks, and you’d think nowadays they could be blocked or stopped somehow.

This number keeps calling me over and over. I answer but stay silent, then whoever calls just hangs up after roughly six seconds. It's really annoying since they tend to ring when I’m busy or in the middle of something important. Does anyone know how I can block or stop these calls for good?

They claimed to be from Microsoft but as soon as I mentioned I just use Apple devices, they suddenly ended the call.

Got a call today, 9th April, around 10.22 from 000122 233031. It was a man with an Indian accent, hard to catch what he was saying. Mentioned something about Microsoft, I think. Asked him why he was bothering me and wasting my time. Then he shouted something like "I will ### you" and just hung up.

i just answered then put the phone down and carried on with my stuff. they might have all the time in the world to talk about these so-called hackers, but i really dont. if more folks did this, they’d probably lose more money on calls than what they manage to scam.

Upon hearing a cheery "Good afternoon, guv'nor!" delivered in a cheeky pidgin accent, you can bet your bottom dollar things are about to take a turn for the worse. The moment he claims to be affiliated with Microsoft, you instinctively realise it’s all a ruse. When he tells you there’s likely some perilous malware lurking on your device, it becomes clear that the odds are stacked in your favour, and your computer is probably just fine. As soon as he promises he can sort it out for you, it’s blindingly obvious he’s more interested in planting some dodgy software instead. And when you dare to ask for your money back because, let’s face it, Windows 10 is absolute rubbish, he simply cuts you off. Such is life, eh?

Got a call from this number early this morning around 8am, some foreign bloke shouting about an emergency and that my computer was hacked. I told him straight to jog on, but he kept on with his nonsense. I repeated myself in a different language, which finally made him stop, then he just hung up.

Got a call from a bloke with an Asian accent saying he was David from Microsoft Windows, warning me some hacker was trying to get into my PC. He asked if it was on and all that sort of thing. I just told him “hold on a sec” and then left him waiting until he gave up and dropped the call. These scams normally happen after loads of quiet calls, over and over.

Got a call at 13:57 on 16/03/16 from a woman with an Asian accent claiming to be from 'Microsoft Service', saying my computer was hacked according to their system. I told her I knew it was a scam straight away. She got a bit annoyed and ended the call. I don't understand how this number and their scam haven’t been shut down yet?

0001222330131 The second the bloke with a foreign voice said 'Windows', I switched to my 'doddery old lady with a thick Yorkshire twang' and started chatting about my brilliant double glazing. I let him go on about 'infected windows' for a bit, then told him how I keep my windows clean, though the bathroom one’s a bit tricky to get at. I even asked if he fancied popping round to help me clean it. The moment he said 'Computer', I told him I didn't own one. Click!!! Not had a peep from them after that.

I kept getting calls throughout February. The most recent one came through on 18/02/16 at 2.03pm GMT. I've figured out it's best to just hang up, since they keep saying they want to sort out my Windows PC. Bit strange though, as we only ever use Apple machines here!

They keep calling me around 8am, saying they're from the Windows tech team. Every time it’s the same old story about my computer having issues. I usually tell them I reckon it’s just a scam. They always sound shocked and annoyed that I’d say that, and then they just hang up. This happens several times a week!

I've been getting loads of calls from this number lately. Because of all the "auto marketing messages" going around, I wait for the caller to say something first. But with this number, they never speak - just silence, then the call ends on their side after a bit. After looking it up here, I've gone ahead and blocked this number on my phone.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent saying she was from Microsoft, but she was so quiet I could barely hear her. When I asked her to repeat herself, she got all annoyed. She told me to turn on my computer that supposedly has Microsoft on it. I asked how she knew I had a Microsoft computer, and she said she could check since I have a licensed copy. I said my computer was already turned on, and she asked me what I was seeing. I replied, "that's really none of your business," and then she just told me to "get lost" and hung up. Proper rubbish scam if you ask me.

Got a call this morning around 8:08 from a guy who sounded Indian, claiming to be from Microsoft Windows tech support in London. He said there was an issue with my PC. He was really pushy, but the moment I asked to talk to his manager and mentioned I’m on the TPS list, he just dropped the call. I ended up hanging up.
