2 yearsGot a call that sounded just like the one mentioned earlier - some No Name bank stuff. Apparently, £300 was charged for Amazon (which I’ve never used) and £1000 sent abroad from my account. They told me to press 1 if I wanted to approve it (bit dodgy if you ask me) or press 2 to chat to someone. Total scam in my opinion!Unknown BankAmazon2 yearsI didn’t pick up when they called, and there was no voicemail left. After calling back and having no luck, I’ve decided to block the number.2 yearsI got a call from this number and I could hear kids playing in the background. A lady said she was calling from Microsoft and told me my computer was hacked. She claimed Microsoft had already sent me some alerts and offered to fix the problem. I wasn’t having any of it and declined to help. The woman got really annoyed and started shouting that my computer would get blocked for good. That’s when I just hung up. The whole thing seemed dodgy to me. She was desperate to get me on my computer so I guess she wanted to take control of it somehow.MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (0117 973 9481)
