10 yearsThey rang up my mum twice and kept bothering her. Honestly, I feel like telling them off proper.10 yearsThis number kept ringing me loads this week. I mentioned to the guy, who sounded asian, that he was talking rubbish about my Windows problem, so I just blocked him. Then I got in touch with Microsoft, and they confirmed it’s a scam - said they never call customers directly like that.Microsoft10 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to work in the technical department at Microsoft. They mentioned they had logged issues on my computer that could potentially expose it to harmful downloads and the like. They asked me to power up my computer so they could guide me through fixing the issues. The number appeared to be local to Sheffield, but I have my doubts and suspect it might be a bogus number.MicrosoftSheffield10 yearsToday i got a call and just let them talk for a bit. When i asked for my own info, they stuttered and couldn’t get it right, even tried saying my name as “tim” which is totally off since i’m a woman. Been annoyed by calls like this all day, so i shouted ‘nonsense’ a few times until they just kept making weird noises like “eh, eh, eh” and then just hung up on me. So fed up with this kinda hassle!Tim10 yearsToday I got a call from 01142439587 and noticed a few other calls in the past week too, maybe from the same lady, all warning about some supposed Microsoft problems on my PC. Some of those previous calls popped up as international or from the number 02022-260582. I picked up one of the 020 calls and quickly figured it was likely a scam trying to get into my computer, so I just hung up. It's a bit annoying how they keep trying like that!Microsoft10 yearsRandomly got a call from someone who said they didn’t understand and wanted to know how they even got my number before they hung up.10 yearsI just got a really rude call from 01142439587. The person told me, quite abruptly, that I’d keep getting calls endlessly because of some issue with my computer, then they just hung up on me. Proper annoying!Madam10 yearsI got a call from a lady with a foreign accent talking about issues with Microsoft on my PC. She asked me to share some details from my computer, and I reckon if I’d stuck around she’d have tried to get remote access. It was obviously one of those scams aiming to take over my machine and steal personal info. Not sure if the number was from Sheffield or overseas, since I’ve heard fraudsters can now fake UK numbers on the caller ID.MicrosoftSheffieldUK10 yearsSo this woman with an Asian accent called, said she was from Windows support. She started her usual spiel and was just about to try and get into my computer when I flipped the script and asked her for her bank details. She sounded confused and asked what for, so I told her I wanted to get into her account first so I could nick some cash off her. The phone went dead straight away! Funny how that works, huh? 222710 yearsI received a call from a lady with an accent who was rambling on about issues related to Microsoft. She insisted that I turn on my computer to check for some errors. I could tell she was angling to get remote access to my machine, so after toying with her for a few minutes, I decided to put an end to the chat and hung up. Quite the dodgy situation, if you ask me!Microsoft10 yearstoday i got a call from a woman with a foreign accent, talking about microsoft. she had already called me yesterday and also earlier this morning but just hung up when i picked up. the number showed as from sheffield, and when i asked where she was calling from today, she just ended the call. does anyone know how i can track this number?MicrosoftSheffield10 yearsHaha, Microsoft, seriously? Classic!Microsoft10 yearsThey rang us four times today, claiming to be from Sheffield police station. Each time, they greeted us with, "Hello, it’s the Sheffield police station, how may we assist you?" but then hung up promptly. Quite strange, if you ask me!Sheffield10 yearsCall thwarted by our ring interceptor.10 yearsI've received calls from these individuals for the second time this week. Who on earth are they?10 yearsSeems quite dodgy to me. An Asian chap rang me, claiming to be from Microsoft. I reckon he's after remote access to my computer. Just a heads up to stay cautious!Microsoft10 yearsThere's been a bit of a mix-up with our Windows PC.Submit Your Own Report (0114 243 9587)
