Phone number ☎️ 01159622648 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation posing as IT technicians from Windows support, falsely claiming computer infections or security issues. Callers frequently pressure recipients to grant remote access, ask suspicious personal questions, and quickly hang up when challenged or questioned. Many targets have detected the scam due to inconsistencies, such as being informed their Mac or Linux systems are infected, or by posing as security professionals themselves. The calls often use local UK numbers to appear legitimate but typically involve rude behaviour, repeated hang-ups, and unconvincing scripts. It is advised not to engage, never provide personal details, and report these calls to appropriate authorities to protect vulnerable individuals from falling prey to this fraudulent activity.
Reports on phone number 01159622648
8 yearsThey rang me up, saying they were a technician from Windows and that they'd spotted a security problem on my device. Total con, if you ask me!10 yearsI got a call from some dodgy IT company. When I asked them for their info so I could report them, they just dropped the call straight away. Quite fishy if you ask me!10 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be the IT department, saying there was an issue with a download on my computer. I pretended I worked in IT too (which wasn’t true) and told them I was tracking their scam. They dropped the call almost immediately after that.10 yearsCan anyone tell me who rang me from this number?10 yearsGot a call from this number and the person wanted the homeowner, but kept asking for their mum’s maiden name. Bit odd if you ask me, especially since she’s been gone for years. Felt pretty dodgy!10 yearsGot a call from some guy claiming my computer was full of viruses and errors, saying he was a 'tech expert' ready to help fix it. I explained that I actually built the PC myself and set up all the software, so I knew it was safe and secure. He just wouldn't back down, carrying on with his spiel. Then he slipped up, saying I was using a Mac OS, which isn't true - I use Windows and Linux instead. I called him out on that and told him we are TPS registered, so he better not ring me again.Telephone Preference Service10 yearsGot a call from these guys earlier, I was tired and a bit curt but he just kept going. He told me my computer was downloading stuff incorrectly and asked me to check it. I flat out refused and ended the call. I only picked up because the number looked legit on my screen. Checking the call history now and looks like the same scam others have mentioned here.10 yearsGot a call just now and the moment I answered, I could tell it was a scripted telemarketer. I kept him on the line for a while, threw a few weird questions about his company and how he got my details (which honestly is quite creepy). Then I asked to speak to his manager and right after that, he just hung up. I’ve tried asking for supervisors on a few calls like this before, and they always end up disconnecting. I’ve even tried being kind but it doesn’t seem to make much difference. Would definitely recommend trying that tactic.10 yearsThis has happened quite a few times now where I pick up the phone and then the caller just hangs up straight away.10 yearsGot a phone call from some bloke with an accent, said my computer was infected with a virus. I played along, told him I don't use Windows. He kept asking what I actually do on the computer, so I told him I do police work. He pressed again about what else I do, I just said I only work on it. Then he muttered something rude and hung up. Mentioning the police clearly didn’t faze him. These scammers really need a serious lesson.Windows10 yearsGot a call from someone sayin they could fix my computer, something about Windows and the r key being busted. Bit weird they used a local number, 0115 9622648, to ring me up. Makes me uneasy thinkin they might ring my mum or someone who isn't tech savvy. Can't trust these calls, really.10 yearsSome bloke phoned saying my computer was full of viruses. I told him I don’t even have a desktop, but he went on about my laptop being infected. I had to tell him I don’t own one either. Then he started calling me rude names and just hung up. Proper rude!10 yearsThis bloke was telling me my computer was picking up a virus and if I did what he said, he could get into my pc and sort it out! Yeah right, like I’m gonna fall for that one lol.10 yearsI’ve had about 20 of these calls this year from people saying they can fix my computer. I just played along and wasted their time, making them pay for the call. I don’t even own a PC, I use a Mac - they can’t crack those, so they usually hang up once they realise. For anyone reading this and not in the know: your computer doesn’t ring you up if you download something, and definitely not some dodgy call centre. If your machine had a virus, neither Microsoft nor Apple would be giving you a ring.MicrosoftApple10 yearsThey keep ringing, pretending they can sort out my virus issue - but honestly, I don’t have any! It’s the same old story again.10 yearsI keep getting calls where they barely say anything, just a couple words in some language I don't understand. It's really annoying.10 yearsJust got a ring from this number a few minutes back. I fibbed a bit, saying our son broke the monitor a while ago, and he asked if he could speak to the lad. I told him no, he’s just 12 months old! Then he started going on about how we must have ongoing problems and need to get a new monitor quick so he can sort it out. I ended the call then and there!10 yearsHonestly, I have no clue who these jokers are. They call, just stay silent or breathe into the phone, which is super annoying if you ask me, and then drop the call. This happens loads of times every week.Submit Your Own Report (0115 962 2648)
