Got 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!

In 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!

Got two calls in a row in the last couple of days but no one said a word. Proper weird.

Got 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!

Some bloke from India called me, probably a scam sort of thing. I just told him to find proper work with a legit firm instead of messing about with these dodgy scams.

There was this guy with a pretty thick Indian accent who said his name was Michael and claimed he was calling on behalf of Microsoft.

My mum got a call today from someone claiming she owned a laptop, but she really doesn’t have one. When she told them this, they just kept insisting she did. She’s pretty upset and has gone ahead and reported it to the police.

They stayed quiet the whole time. I ended up saying "hello" like 4 or 5 times before they just dropped the call.

Luckily, my answerphone picks up when I'm home but don't fancy answering calls right then. It just lets it go through so I can catch any messages later.

The moment the answerphone kicks in, they hang up straight away. No messages left at all.

Received a call regarding a problem with Windows at 8:45 on 11th July 2016. An individual of Asian descent contacted us, and it gave off strong vibes of a scam. We decided to hang up right away.

Absolutely, it's a classic case of a Windows scam. These chaps are masquerading as Microsoft, aren't they?
