0014692980966 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 0014692980966 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance calling early mornings, often claiming to be from Microsoft about computer issues. Callers frequently hang up when questioned, use fake names, and sometimes stay silent on the line. Despite many numbers being registered with the Telephone Preference Service, calls continue. The callers try to trick victims into allowing remote access to computers or claim there are viruses, often with aggressive behaviour if challenged. Some people waste scammers’ time by engaging briefly, but the calls cause frustration and disturbance, especially as they sometimes target vulnerable individuals. The number appears linked to typical scam tactics such as pretending to be technical support to extract personal information or money. Many report blocking the number, but it often reappears or is used alongside other withheld or different numbers.

This number rang me super early around 7:15, my son picked up but as soon as he did, the call just dropped. Strange!

At 10:12, I got a call from 0014692980966 claiming to be from Microsoft about my PC. I quickly told them I wasn’t interested and asked them to hang up. Then I just ended the call. Even though I’ve been signed up with the Telephone Preference Service for ages, these annoying calls keep coming through. It’s about time something was done to put a stop to this. I always double-check my TPS registration to try and avoid this nonsense.

Last Friday, 30th December 2016, I answered a call at 1.36pm and all I could hear was silence. I've had my number registered with the TPS for nearly 25 years now. It's really annoying - something seriously needs to be done to crack down on these idiots. Funny thing is, my mate keeps her number ex-directory and she still gets like five or six calls daily!

Got a call from 1036 on 28/12/16, no one spoke a word. Just silence the whole time before they hung up.

This number 0014692980966 has been bugging me for the tenth time now. They claimed my Microsoft computer was infected with a virus. I cheekily told them it might be from me watching their mum on adult sites, and they just cut me off straight away.

Got calls from this number two days in a row, 28th and 29th. Person said they were from Microsoft but I wasn’t buying it. When I asked why, I told them Microsoft never phones me out of the blue like that. They just ended the call. Definitely a dodgy scam trying to hack into your computer.

This morning at about 7:30, I got a call from this number. The person claimed to be from Microsoft, saying there was a problem with my Word on Windows. I hung up immediately. I thought BT had blocked all 001 numbers, but clearly it’s not doing its job. What’s the point of paying for their service then?

This number has been ringing me every morning at exactly 7.40am for the last four days, including Christmas, Boxing Day, and the bank holidays! It's so relentless, driving me crazy! I've had to keep my answerphone on non-stop because of these scam calls. Plus, the scam emails are flooding my inbox as well. It really would make a difference if firms stopped sharing or selling your details so freely.

Had two calls from this number today. Missed the first one but picked up the second. A bloke with an Indian accent said he was from Microsoft, but I cut him off quick, saying I don’t even own a PC. How on earth do these scammers track down our numbers anyway?

I got a call recently from someone who said he was Jack Marshall from Microsoft Tech Support, telling me there was an error coming from my computer. I told him I don’t even use a Microsoft PC and ended the call right away. This was the fourth time in two days I’ve had one of these calls, but to be honest, I didn’t bother to look up the number on the first three.

This number just woke me up again, seriously irritating! It’s the fourth time they’ve called and since I see the caller ID, I just don’t pick up. Last week they tried calling from another number and also a withheld one, all acting like they’re from Microsoft saying there’s some problem with my computer. Total scam!

This number has rung me up a couple of times today, but they havent managed to get past my BT 8500 call blocker. It makes them say who they are first before I pick up. Ive put the number on block now, so they’ll probably try from another one, but they’ll have to go through the same thing again.

Every one of those points fits the calls I keep getting. The bloke says his name’s John Smith - seriously, how predictable is that? No way does he sound like a John Smith though. Just got my second call this morning, and it’s only just after 8.10! I couldn't help but be a bit rude, to be honest.

Got a call around 8:10 this morning, just like loads of others have mentioned. Can BT actually block these calls so they don’t even ring our landline? It’s getting really annoying!

Had a call this morning around 11 about some issue with my Windows PC. Total scam, someone just trying to con you. Best thing is to hang up straight away. These calls come from the USA, so watch out!

This number has been ringing me loads over the past couple of weeks, often really early like around 8 in the morning. They say they’re from Microsoft, warning there’s something wrong with my computer. Classic scam if you ask me. Sometimes I just cut the call quick, but other times I let them chatter away just to waste their time. Does anyone know how to make these sneaky callers stop bothering us?

My work phone keeps ringing from these people - I’m just there making them spin their wheels! The other day, this bloke wanted to know what was next to my 'CTRL' button on the keyboard. I told him it was my coffee mug! Right after I mentioned calling the coppers, he slammed the phone down. Not long ago, a woman called and tried to get me to hit 'CTRL' and 'R' at the same time. I cut her off quick because it’s obvious they’re up to no good.

This number has rung me three times already today. I told the bloke to quit phoning us cos it's clearly a scam. When I asked where he was calling from, he said 'America', but then insisted it was actually 'California'! I just hung up on him. No sooner had I done that than he called back saying they'll keep ringing until they “sort out the bug.” I told him he was a complete moron, and he fires back calling me a little b***h. What a pair of geniuses!

Watch out, this was a total con! They rang up saying they were from Microsoft. My other half works in IT and played along for a bit. He mentioned they ask you to open your computer settings so they can take over remotely. Most likely, they then install some malware and demand money to remove it. If you question them, they just hang up straight away.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming to be from Microsoft. Something about the way she sounded and the noise in the background gave me a weird feeling right away. When I called her out on it, she just ended the call straight away.

Early this morning, my 74 year old mum got a call from someone claiming there was a problem with her Windows laptop. She told them she doesn’t even own a laptop, but then the woman on the phone started getting quite rude. Pretty sure it’s a dodgy scam trying to get bank info. Best just to put the phone down and not engage at all.

Got a call earlier from someone on TalkTalk, claiming some dodgy stuff. They kept asking for me by name too. Honestly, wish these nuisance callers would just disappear for good.

This number’s been ringing me loads lately. Every time I answer, the line just goes dead straight away. They keep saying they’re calling from TalkTalk. Honestly, I’m so over getting these calls nonstop.

A guy with an Indian accent kept asking for me. I kept wanting to know who he was first before giving my name, then he just gave up and ended the call.
