This number’s been ringing me off and on, even twice in one day, with someone claiming to be from Microsoft. I know it’s a total scam, so I just hang up straight away. Before, they wouldn’t leave a number, so I blocked all unknown callers, but now they’re actually leaving these numbers so they can get past that. Really annoying. I’m planning to report the number to my phone company, TalkTalk, who told me they can block it once they get enough reports. I’m curious what rubbish they’ll try next though.

i got a call saying there was something wrong with my windows and that my pc had viruses. i decided to test them and said "if you really have my details, tell me my name?" the guy then shouted "you're a complete idiot!" so obviously i gave it back to him. i've reported that number to action fraud uk now.

Received a call today, the 30th of May, concerning something about Windows. It was unexpected, and the caller struggled with English quite a bit.

Got one of those calls again where no one speaks. Just silence on the other end. Annoying!

Some bloke called saying he was from the Windows tech team, claiming my computer was full of viruses. I asked if he was actually from Microsoft and he said yes. After that, I pretty much told him to jog on.

Got a call from someone claiming there was an issue with my Windows. They tried to get access to my computer for dodgy reasons. When I told them I work in IT and would trace their number, they quickly ended the call.

I've been receiving calls from this pestilent number, associated with so-called Windows technical support. They seem to ring me about three times a week. I’ve taken to ignoring it altogether when I spot it on my phone!

I've got a hunch that these calls are dodgy and coming from North America. Whenever I pick up, there's often a bit of a lag, making me think it might be some sort of automated system. If they do manage to get a response, they're likely trying to pull a fast one. The voice on the other end tends to be from abroad, often with a name like Gupta. I’ve taken to asking them for a four-digit PIN; if they can't provide one, I inform them that the call will be cut off in five seconds. This usually throws them off balance, as they're often not clued up on what a PIN even is.

Thought it was some sort of con when they started chatting about Windows, so I just ended the call.

They rang up saying they needed to discuss something about windows. When I said I didn’t really get what they meant, they mentioned it had to do with my computer. But the moment I asked why they wanted to chat about my computer, they just went silent.

We've been plagued with calls from 001822610929, but every time we answer, there's complete silence on the line. It's exceptionally frustrating! We've gone ahead and blocked the number, yet oddly enough, the calls persist. What's the deal with that?

We've received a fair few calls from this number, and curiously enough, they all claim to be from the Windows Technical Department. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get through if I try to call back!
