Got a message claiming to be from my bank, but they never say which one. It’s some robot woman’s voice, definitely a scam. So dodgy!

Just now I received a call from someone saying they were from Microsoft, telling me my computer got hacked. The bloke had a really heavy Indian accent, which made it hard to understand everything he said. He was trying to sound serious and kept insisting I give him access to fix it, but I wasn’t convinced at all. Felt like a total scam to me. Didn’t fall for it, obviously! If you get a call like this, watch out - definitely not legit.

I got a call with a robotic voice saying there were two purchases on my card that I don’t even recognize. It told me to press a number to talk to someone about it! Total scam, don’t fall for it!

I picked up and all I got was silence, has to be one of those scam calls I reckon.

So I got a call from 0117 927 9688 on 19th July at about 10.18 in the morning here in north-east England. The person said I’d made a train booking from London to Edinburgh using my credit card and told me to press 1 if that wasn’t right. I just ended the call straight away. Felt like they were trying to exploit the computer troubles going on today. The voice was a woman’s and sounded really believable, which made it seem all the more dodgy.
