Got a call from this number today. Some bloke with a heavy Indian accent said he was from Microsoft and gave his name as JAMES. I told him my name was Sing and joked that we were both spinning tales! After that, I wished him a good day and ended the call. 😀

Got a call from this number earlier today saying they were from the Windows Service Center. Since I'm in IT, I decided to mess with them a bit until they realised I wasn’t an easy target and started swearing at me. Still, it was quite entertaining and I managed to tie them up for about 10 minutes so they couldn’t bother anyone else.

This number 001224555014 keeps calling me but when I pick up, they just hang up straight away. It’s happened like three times today already and I have no idea who they are or what they want. Proper strange.

Got a call from a woman using this number saying my computer had a virus and she’d fix it for free. I didn’t go along with it because it smelled like a scam. I’ve got solid antivirus installed and run full scans regularly, so I’m quite sure my system is safe. Plus, it’s hard to believe anyone could know what’s on my PC without actually getting into it - which is probably what they were after. After I hung up, they kept ringing back several times in a few hours, which just makes me more certain it’s a persistent scam. Definitely don’t fall for it!

I received a call from a woman using this number who insisted that my computer was infected with a virus and offered to resolve it at no charge. I chose not to pursue the matter further as I have a strong suspicion that this is some sort of scam. My antivirus software is top-notch, and I conduct thorough scans regularly, so I'm fairly certain I'm well protected. It seems highly improbable that anyone outside my device could know anything about my system without gaining direct access first-which is likely their ulterior motive. DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR TRICKS! After I hung up, they tried to get in touch with me multiple times in just a few hours, which is yet another red flag indicating a persistent scam operation.

A lady rang me from this number saying my computer had a virus and she could sort it out for free! I didn’t go along with it cause it just seemed suspicious. I’ve got decent antivirus software and I run full system checks regularly, so I’m pretty certain my device is safe. Plus, it’s unlikely anyone would know what’s on my computer unless they had direct access, which I reckon was their aim. So heads up, don’t fall for it. After I hung up, they kept calling back repeatedly over the next few hours - which just feels like a pushy scam to me.

Got a call earlier claiming to be from Microsoft. I asked how they even got my number since I’m on the No Cold Calls list. The bloke, who sounded like he was from India or Pakistan, said his name was 'Joe'. He insisted Microsoft provided my details, but I told him that’s not true and warned I’d report him if he called again. Then he just hung up!

I wouldn’t pick up this number if I were you. It’s a total scam, and if you say anything back to the person on the other end, they’ll probably start being rude or aggressive. Best thing is to just block it straight away or use a phone that lets you stop calls from certain numbers.

this bloke keeps ringing me like every 30 minutes, saying he needs to discuss something about my computer. I told him if he rings me one more time I'm gonna contact the cops. he just hung up straight away after that.

Got a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft Windows, telling me there was some kind of file on my computer trying to steal my info. He already knew my name and where I live. I told him I wasn’t interested in talking and just ended the call. Is this for real a scam? What can someone really do with just those details?

Got a call from this number earlier but didn’t pick up cause it was unfamiliar. Looked it up online and I’m so glad I found this site, saved me a lot of hassle. Really useful!

Got a call earlier claiming I’d got some bad software on my PC. When I asked who it was, the bloke claimed he worked for Windows. Told him Windows wouldn’t just ring me up out of the blue and he quickly called it a pointless chat and ended the call.

For the past several days I've noticed this number ringing, but it always stops before I can pick up. Quite frustrating!

Got a call from some Indian call centre saying they were from Microsoft. They wanted me to install some software and when I said no, they started swearing and got really aggressive. I’m on the TPS list and I’m a pensioner too, so this was really upsetting.
