9 yearsI keep getting calls from someone claiming to be Microsoft, telling me my computer has issues. I told them I don’t even own a computer, then some Asian voice just hung up on me. This happens like five times every single day, no matter what time it is.Microsoft9 yearsI got a call from these lot saying my computer was at risk from harmful sites. They were just trying to trick me into letting them in. Best to just hang up and not pay any attention to them.9 yearsSome woman rang me up, talking super fast about how my computer had been hacked or something. I just replied, "Would you like me to hand over all my bank info right now, so you don’t have to bother trying to hack it?" I get these sorts of calls about four times a week, at least. It’s really annoying, but I usually just have a giggle, and if I’ve got time, I’ll mess around with them a bit for a laugh.9 yearsI got a call from a woman with an Asian accent saying my computer had problems and she was from Microsoft. I double-checked and it turned out to be fake.Microsoft9 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft. I told them I don’t have a computer and the guy got quite annoyed before just hanging up. His accent was definitely Indian. Wouldn’t recommend picking up if you see this number ring.Microsoft9 yearsSomeone was trying to get into my computer without permission.9 yearsGot a call earlier from a bloke with a thick Indian accent claiming there was a problem with my Microsoft on the PC. Funny thing is, I'd already had a very similar call earlier that day, so I wasn’t in the mood for nonsense. I told him, "Oh no, that’s awful... especially since I don’t even own a computer." Actually, I do have one, but it’s an Apple. He snapped back rudely, dropping some swear words, clearly annoyed that I called his bluff.Microsoft9 yearsI got a call from someone sounding Indian saying he was calling on behalf of Microsoft. The call showed up as a long distance number, but my phone actually showed the real number too. I told the bloke I wasn’t falling for it, explained I don’t even own a Microsoft PC, and told him to shove off before hanging up on him.Microsoft9 yearsAt first, there was just silence on the line, with some muffled chat from what sounded like a call centre in the background. Then a young guy with a thick Indian accent started talking. Most of it was hard to make out, but I caught the word "computer" and something about "michael soft". I told him I didn’t quite get what he meant. He laughed nervously and gave it another shot. I got a bad feeling it was a scam and still couldn’t make sense of it. Eventually, he just ended the call. Pretty sketchy, if you ask me.9 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Microsoft, asserting that there was an issue with my computer... as if! Just another dodgy scammer on the line.Microsoft9 yearsAnswered the call but there was dead silence. Strange!9 yearsSome bloke rang saying he was from Microsoft, right?

Best just ignore them and definitely don’t let them near your laptop.MicrosoftApple9 yearsHad a call from a woman named Sophie who claimed to be from Microsoft saying my computer was infected with a virus!
