This number showed up on my phone just now but I didn’t get to answer. I've noticed before I get calls from numbers that look a lot like this one.

I received a call today about a parcel that's meant to be arriving for me. When I inquired about the delivery service handling it, they abruptly disconnected the call. Almost instantaneously, they rang me back and questioned me as to why I had supposedly hung up. I replied, “I didn’t hang up; you did!” I proceeded to ask once more who was responsible for the delivery, and lo and behold, they hung up once more. It's quite amusing, really, as I’m actually expecting a delivery today!

I've received several phone calls lately, with the caller claiming to be from Microsoft. The first two times, I immediately told the caller that I knew they were trying to get personal information from me and they hung up. But on the third call, I decided to handle it differently. I pretended to be in the garden and suggested that if the caller was aware of someone trying to access my computer, they should fix it from their end. The caller then explained that they needed my permission to do so. I responded by saying, "But you just informed me there's a problem, which means you must have already accessed my computer, so go ahead and fix it from your end." Well, unsurprisingly, the caller hung up! It was quite amusing!

Earlier today, I received a phone call from an individual claiming to be a representative from Microsoft. However, I promptly informed them that I did not possess a Windows computer. Surprisingly, the person on the line then pretended to be a robot and delivered some phrases in a robotic tone, before abruptly ending the call.

Some bloke claiming to be John from Microsoft rang me up, saying my PC was blasting viruses all over the internet and only he could fix it! He sounded dead surprised and kept me chatting for ages, about 20 minutes or more, trying to get me to do all sorts of daft and risky things, like downloading remote access software. In the end, he lost his temper, cursed at me calling me a liar (bit rich if you ask me) and warned I'd meet a nasty end like "all evil people". Proper joke!

This morning I got a call from that number and it was a scam for sure. An American bloke was on the line, but I just cut him off cause I didn't want to deal with all his rubbish. Right after, there was a knock at my door, it was the police!

I recently received a phone call claiming to be from Microsoft. Upon hearing this, I immediately informed the caller that I would not allow them to access my computer. To my shock and dismay, he proceeded to make inappropriate comments. He stated that there was a virus on my computer and said, "Allow me to assist you with the virus in your personal files." Feeling uncomfortable, I promptly ended the conversation. However, the caller persisted and called me back, speaking louder this time, demanding that I turn on my computer. I firmly reiterated that I would not comply with his request. Undeterred, he responded by saying, "Alright then, remove your undergarments so that I can fix the virus in your personal files." This disturbing encounter left me wondering; why can't we report these incidents to prevent them from happening in the future?

Whenever im unsure about a number calling me, i just get a cheap call blocker. Its saved me loads, i can stop calls right away whilst they’re still talking, and they have no idea they’ve been blocked. They keep ringing but cos the blocker stops my phone from ringing, I just dont answer. The blocker also keeps a record of when and who called, which is pretty handy. Its peace of mind cos they never figure out why I dont pick up anymore.

I got a call from some bloke with an American accent who said he was from Microsoft. Never had a call from them before, so it seemed dodgy to me, especially with all the scam stories going around. I told him to buzz off straight away. Definately adding this number to my blocked list.

Got a call from a woman with an Indian accent claiming she was with Microsoft. She told me I didn’t have a computer, then just hung up. I’ve had more calls like that since, so now I just ignore any unknown numbers and don’t bother answering. Better to be safe and check first.

An individual claiming to be from the Microsoft technical department contacted me. They informed me that my computer was transmitting error reports and requested to discuss some matters. However, being aware that my PC is registered under a previous address with Microsoft, I decided to entertain their proposal for a while. Eventually, I questioned their legitimacy, at which point the background office noise abruptly ceased and they ended the call.

I recently had a phone call from someone who claimed to be from Microsoft. They told me that my computer was facing issues and downloading harmful files that could make it accessible to anyone. The person on the call, who happened to be an Asian woman, insisted that I switch on my computer so she could guide me through the steps to fix the problem. To confirm whether this call was genuinely from Microsoft, I queried the caller about how I could verify their authenticity. Yet, she simply repeated her previous request, assuring me that by turning on my computer, she would provide a code as proof of her affiliation with Microsoft. Realizing I didn't have the time at that moment, I explained this to her. She expressed the urgency of the matter and promised to call back tomorrow.

I received a phone call on the 26th of July, 2016, around 2 PM. An Asian-sounding gentleman, based in Germany, contacted me, asserting he was from Microsoft and that their server had supposedly flagged some issues with my computer. I immediately recognised it as a scam and told him to shove off. He attempted to dispute my claim, but I promptly hung up on him.

I received a call today from someone who identified themselves as Bibi, supposedly from Microsoft Technical Support, with a noticeable Asian accent. I found it quite odd that a technical support line would be contacting me from Germany, given the country code 0049. When I inquired about this curious situation, he abruptly ended the call. Quite suspicious!

I received a call purportedly from Bibi, who claimed to be a representative from Microsoft Technical Support. It's worth mentioning that the caller had an Asian accent. However, I was puzzled as to why someone from Microsoft Technical Support would contact me from Germany (country code 0049). Strangely enough, the caller abruptly ended the call without offering any explanation.

I received a phone call from someone claiming to fix a Windows issue on my computer. Suspicious of their intentions, I promptly identified it as a scam. I informed the caller of my realization, which immediately provoked an angry response from them. They began a spirited tirade, suggesting that they engage in fraudulent activities as a result of historical injustices carried out by our ancestors. According to their argument, these past wrongdoings resulted in their present circumstances of being impoverished while others prospered. After venting their frustrations, the caller abruptly ended the call.

I received a call earlier today from someone claiming there was a problem with my Windows operating system. The thing is, I don’t even have Windows at home. When I explained this, he insisted it was unbelievable and started hurling insults at me, calling me a foolish idiot. I couldn't help but laugh at his absurdity, which seemed to infuriate him even more-he resorted to some rather offensive remarks. The whole situation just made me chuckle even more! :)
