Today I got called three times by a woman with a strong accent from some place called GB Capital. She was pretty pushy, insisting she could help me make a lot of money investing. Totally feels like one of those obvious scams.

This number 01233280886 from GB Capital keeps ringing me up. It's some foreign lady on the line every single time. I've told them loads of times to erase my details but they just won't stop calling. I'm thinking of reporting this, maybe then they'll finally get the message.

Had a lady on the line going on about being from Windows security, saying my computer was getting hacked. I told her Windows never calls like that, but she kept insisting it was urgent. I just hung up, but she rang straight back. I ignored it and she didn’t bother leaving a voicemail or anything.

We didn’t want to help. They kept on calling back again and again. Eventually, we just left the phone off the receiver.

I ended the call straight away, but the same number rang again right after. I've blocked it now. It's so frustrating, especially when a family member is seriously ill and we're anxiously waiting for updates.

Got a call from a woman claiming she was with Windows security, telling me my computer was being hacked. She said the service would be cut off unless she got access to my PC to fix it. I tried to deal with her but she was really rude and ended up hanging up on me.

Got a call from this Indian lady with a strong accent, saying it was about broadband. She kept pushing really hard and came off quite rude. I told her I wasn’t interested and to piss off, then I blocked the number. Pretty sure someone else will ring soon, just from a new number though.

Got a call early morning, around 8. The lady on the line had quite a strong accent, sounded Asian, and I could hardly understand her. She claimed to be from Virgin Media and asked when I’d last used my computer. I ended the call right away. Then they called back, asking why I hung up. I told them straight up I knew it was a scam and hung up again. They tried phoning once more but this time I just didn’t answer.

This guy had a thick accent and was rambling on about hackers being on my PC. When I asked if it was my Windows 11 machine, he insisted it was. Thing is, I don’t even own a Windows 11 computer!

Oh yeah, total tech scam for sure. I picked up and this lady was like, “Are you Mr ******?” Next thing, she hands me over to some “supervisor” who started banging on about hackers breaking into my computer or laptop. I asked them, “If you really know my computer’s compromised, how come you don’t even know my name?” Boom, call just dropped right there, funny enough!

A woman rang up saying she had some details about my computer. I told her she was mistaken and ended the call. Then she phoned right back, saying "Why did you hang up? You don’t get it." Needless to say, I wasn’t very polite in response. She tried calling again, but I just let it ring out. Bit annoying, but gotta give her credit for being really persistent!
