Reports on phone number 01173709905
4 yearsThey straight up said it's a scam. WATCH OUT. They were trying to hack into computers. If you mess around with them, you could help stop others from falling for it.4 yearsI received a rather concerning call earlier today from the number 01173709905. The caller identified herself as Christine Lee, claiming to be from Microsoft. She warned me that foreign hackers were attempting to breach my computer's security. Quite alarmingly, she even requested remote access to my device. I promptly ended the call, but I can't help but feel this is quite perilous; they can be remarkably persuasive, and it's easy for unsuspecting individuals to fall for such scams.Christine LeeMicrosoft4 yearsClaimed to be called Peter, asserting he was with Microsoft, and warned me about some unlawful activity on my computer!PeterMicrosoft4 yearsThis bloke claimed he worked for Microsoft and wanted me to let him control my computer remotely. Yep, classic scam right there.Microsoft4 yearsI’ve been warning my husband not to pick up on strange numbers like 01173709905. Today it was some woman claiming she had an urgent message for him. Honestly, just another dodgy scam trying to trick us.4 yearsAbout quarter of an hour ago, I got a call from a woman who said her name was "Clara" and claimed to be with Microsoft. The first call came from a 01574 number, but I hung up straight away. Then, barely a minute later, my phone buzzed again, this time showing 01173709905 - turns out it was "Clara" again, apparently an old mate. She asked why I had cut the call, but I ended it once more. She tried ringing back right away, but I ignored it. Seems like these folks can switch numbers easily. Just a heads up, watch out for this sort of thing.ClaraMicrosoft4 yearsI received a call from an Indian call centre, and they were masquerading as Microsoft, claiming there were problems with my computer. It's nothing but a typical scam, really.Microsoft4 yearsTried ringing my landline this morning at about 9 but got no answer. (Glasgow)Glasgow4 yearsHad a call from a couple of blokes with really thick Asian accents claiming to be from Microsoft. They said there was illegal stuff going on my computer and told me to enter NETSTAT so they could “help”. Obviously, that’s them trying to get control of your PC! I played along for a bit, but when he asked what was showing on my screen, I didn’t hold back and told him straight up he was a fraud. We ended up arguing for a bit before he just disconnected. Typical scam!Microsoft4 yearsIt was a woman who didn't seem to speak English properly, probably Filipino or something. She kept giggling the whole time.4 yearsSince I didn’t know the number, I just ignored the call. They didn’t bother leaving any message. Seems like it could be a scam to me.4 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Microsoft. I wasted their time for about half an hour, which was quite amusing!Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from 0117 370 9905, said they were from Microsoft.

Since my number isn't listed publicly, I suspect it’s just a random call generated by a computer.4 yearsCalled me pretending to be from my bank’s security team - total scam.4 yearsGot a call looking for someone who wasn’t home. When I asked what it was about, the caller snapped, “why would I tell you, you’re not [name]?” I tried to offer to take a message but they just got even more annoyed so I ended the call. They rang me straight back on another number, 01277280294.4 yearsThis number called me at 8:11 in the morning but I didn’t pick up since I didn’t know who it was. They didn’t leave any voicemail either.4 yearsNot sure who that was, no message was left on my voicemail.4 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent saying my computer had some issues. I told them to stop calling me, it’s clearly a scam!4 yearsSo today at 09:01:19, I got the 5th call from a lady speaking with an Indian accent, her persistency is unreal, she kept ringing even tho I hung up the last 4 times. All the calls came in under 3 minutes, each from different numbers. Beforehand, she said she was from Microsoft, definitely the same person behind it all.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Indian accent claiming she was from Microsoft, saying there was hacking activity on my PC and they were about to lock it down. When I called the number back to verify, this bloke with an Indian accent answered and gave me almost the same spiel, but called themselves a ‘computer maintenance centre’ this time. Both insisted they were located in Reading, yet the number showed up as Bristol. They were pretty forceful and quite close to rude really.MicrosoftReadingBristolSubmit Your Own Report (0117 370 9905)
