Phone number ☎️ 001202431758 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers claiming to represent Microsoft or its Windows Technical Department, often with strong Indian accents. They falsely allege computer issues or promise refunds, attempting to gain remote access or personal data. Calls may be silent, abruptly hang up, or use fake UK numbers linked to legitimate Microsoft offices. Targets include landlines listed on the TPS, with elderly people notably affected. The scammers often cease contact once challenged or informed they are reporting them. It is important to note that Microsoft never initiates unsolicited calls, and suspicion should be maintained. Users are advised to block the number, avoid following instructions, and report such calls to relevant authorities.

10 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent saying he’s from Microsoft, telling me I was owed a refund because they couldn’t fix my PC. He claimed to be calling from Cambridge and asked me to fill out some form on my computer while he talked me through it. I hung up straight away and blocked the number, but they keep ringing back non stop. Proper annoying!MicrosoftCambridge10 yearsIn just two days, I got calls twice. The first time I told them I wasn’t interested and they mentioned Microsoft Windows. Today, I told them I don’t own a computer and asked how they got my number since it’s a landline. They said it was from a database. I told them I'm on the TPS and that I’d be reporting them. Then they just ended the call!MicrosoftTelephone Preference Service10 yearsGot two calls in a row in the last couple of days but no one said a word. Proper weird.10 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent saying he was from the Windows Tech Support team and that he worked at Microsoft in Cambridge. What made it worse than a usual scam was he used what looked like a real UK phone number and even gave me an address that’s where Microsoft actually has an office. You can tell someone did a bit of digging, or at least used info that’s easy to find online. Definitely a dodgy number, stay away!Windows Technical DepartmentMicrosoftCambridgeUK10 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Microsoft Support, total scam.
