When I asked for his name (he said David Happy), the firm he worked for, and his employee ID, he got really nasty. I told him I’d report the call, then ended it and put the number on block.David Happy7 yearsSome bloke rang me up pretending to be from Microsoft support, saying my IP address had been hacked and that someone was trying to steal my identity. He told me to go to this website [#]mshelp[###] and then tried to get into my PC using TeamViewer. My computer’s pretty slow and old, so the connection never got through. He said he’d ring me again shortly. About five minutes later, he called back but from a different number, (020) 3409 1774. I asked why the number was different this time, and he just told me to hang up if I didn’t want any help.

It's really annoying.SwindonNewcastle Upon Tyne7 yearsSome company rang me saying there was a problem with my Windows and said they needed to access my PC and check the software ID. They were quite pushy about it. I told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call, but they phoned me back straight away and kept pestering me. I managed to get their contact info, though at first they didn’t want to share it. I was quite firm and they finally gave me a number based in Manchester and an address in London, but the postcode they gave was definitely wrong.ManchesterLondon7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from "Windows" about an issue with my PC.
