8 yearsHad someone claiming to be from IT support call me, so I told her maybe she should find a real job. Then she rang back and said I was being rude! Honestly, nerve of some people!8 yearsCall protect blocked them straight away, which was really helpful. Seems like the new U.K. rules from 08.09.18 haven’t quite got through to the international companies yet. Cheers B.T. for the protection!BTUK8 yearsThey said they were IT support but as soon as I started asking questions they just cut the call. Total scam, no doubt about it!8 yearsGot a call from someone who sounded Indian or maybe Pakistani, trying to sell me some service for my computer.

She told me that apparently someone had bought a phone using my info earlier today, around 8 in the morning. When I asked her which company or organisation's IT department she was with, she dodged the question and tried to steer the conversation elsewhere. Then she wanted me to verify my name, but she didn’t even have it right. She seemed quite annoyed when I hesitated, so I just ended the call.Cyber Crime Division8 yearsGot a call from some Indian lady going on about my computer being at risk. I just told her to jog on.8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming he was ringing from London, although my phone showed it as an international number. He said someone in Scotland had hacked my PC. When I asked if he even knew where Scotland was, he just rambled on about sending me messages. Then I questioned how he'd sent messages without knowing my email, and he said they went straight to my computer. I joked if he worked for Star Trek. He didn’t like that, asked why I was being rude, so I told him he was talking nonsense and hung up. Blocked the number now.LondonScotland8 yearsSo this guy with an Indian accent rings me up saying he’s from IT support and that some bloke from Scotland was trying to hack into my computer.
