10 yearsAbsolutely! It's the same fellow from India claiming to represent Microsoft, insisting he could assist me in resolving my computer issues. I decided to have a bit of fun with him and pretended to go along with it. Then I casually mentioned that I’d need to contact the police first to ensure he wasn’t trying to pull a fast one, which was quite evident! He then had the audacity to say I was threatening him with law enforcement, which, to be fair, was spot on! I simply ended the call after that.IndiaMicrosoft10 yearsI received a call from a chap with an Indian accent who claimed to be from Microsoft, warning me about an issue with my IP address. He insisted that they were getting some worrying reports that put me at risk of hacking attempts. I decided to keep him chatting for as long as I could, but in the end, he just hung up. To my surprise, he rang me up again the following day! What a tosser!Microsoft10 years3rd October 2016 I received a call from someone named Paul Thompson, who had a strong Indian accent. He claimed to be a senior technician at Microsoft and insisted that my IP address was being misused. The odd thing is, I don't even possess a Microsoft account!Paul ThompsonMicrosoft10 yearsReceived a call yesterday, 27th September 2016. The chap on the line had a noticeable Indian accent and his command of English was quite poor. He claimed to be from Microsoft, touting his ability to enhance my computer's performance. Complete and utter scam, if you ask me! Definitely stay clear of this nonsense!Microsoft10 yearsI had this rather strange experience with a chap who claimed to be Paul Thompson from Microsoft, an Indian gentleman, no less. He was banging on about how nefarious individuals were exploiting my IP address, despite me not having internet access! I played along with his ramblings for a bit whilst I brewed myself a nice cuppa. Sipping my tea, I listened as he droned on and on, and at one point I cheekily asked if he'd like some as well. He looked completely baffled, so I attempted to give him a quick lesson on how to brew the perfect cup. Every time I tried to chat about tea, he was adamant about steering the conversation back to the computer issues he was droning on about. Eventually, I told him I’d be back in a tick as I needed to pop to the loo. When I returned, lo and behold, he'd vanished!Paul ThompsonMicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (0118 328 3295)
