2 yearsSome bloke called Jason Carter rang me up saying my computer’s been hacked and he was with Microsoft. He gave me a postcode and a number to check him out - 0344 800 2400. He kept saying to turn on my PC and do what he said. Suddenly my doorbell went, so I told him I’d call back since a mate had turned up. Then a woman’s voice told him to stay on the line. Quite dodgy if you ask me.Jason CarterMicrosoft2 yearsI got a voicemail saying I'd recently purchased train tickets from LNER for a trip between Edinburgh and London. The message told me to take some action if I didn't remember making the booking.LondonEdinburghLNER2 yearsAnnoying call outta nowhere, didn't ask for it at all.2 yearsI received a rather dodgy call today, purportedly from my bank. It was a recorded message, which didn't bother to identify the bank in question. The caller alleged that some funds had been siphoned from my account and prompted me to press various keys for further instructions. Quite alarming!2 yearsGot a call this morning from someone saying payments were taken from my account but they never said which bank it was meant to be from. Definitely felt like a scam to me.Submit Your Own Report (0117 909 6540)
