11 yearsI gotta say, all the stories here sound spot on. Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent claiming to be from Windows tech support, telling me my PC was full of viruses. I pretended to go along with it for a while, but the moment I asked how he’d found my number, he just cut me off. No doubt about it, this is a total scam. If you’re getting calls like this, definitely report them to the police through the Action Fraud site. The more complaints they get, the better chance they’ll crack down and close these crooks down.Action Fraud11 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from TalkTalk, telling me I needed to pay up immediately or my computer would crash. They said it was urgent and I had to act by yesterday. I’m 73 and it really upset me. I’m going to ring TalkTalk directly to find out if it was really them. Does anyone know how I can put a stop to these calls? It’s really stressing me out.TalkTalk11 yearsThey kept insisting I log onto my computer, which felt a bit suspicious.11 yearsI got a call from this number and some bloke with an Indian accent asked me to turn on my laptop. He said he was from Windows 10 support or something like that. I told him I don’t have a laptop and then he just hung up on me.11 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Indian accent saying he was with BT tech support. He told me they’d got reports that my computer was about to get hacked. The guy was really rude and took the mick, saying I was daft for not getting that they were trying to help me. I didn’t let him anywhere near my PC, knew straight away it was dodgy. I kept shutting down the chat and after a while he ended the call with "God bless you sir." Just a heads up if you get a call like this, watch out!BTGod11 yearsJust got a ring from this number. They said hello but when I answered, there was nobody. Then some robot voice said "goodbye". Bit unnerving really, cos this number has tried me several times when I wasn’t home.11 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with BT Openreach, said there was an issue with my internet. I told him my internet’s fine. Then I mentioned that I got a warning email saying calls from this number were probably scams. After that, he asked me to forward the email to [email protected]. I just ended the call and didn’t bother sending anything.BT Openreach11 yearsSomebody rang me up pretending to be from Microsoft, saying there was something wrong with my PC. I just told them I don’t own a computer at all. That seemed to throw them off completely!Microsoft11 yearsGot a ring from this number the other day, a bloke with an English-sounding name but spoke with a really strong Indian accent. He said he was from BT Openreach and told me my computer was infected with viruses. I’d been on the phone to BT earlier, sorting out some broadband issues, so having a call from an Indian voice didn’t seem odd at first. But it didn’t take long to figure out it was a dodgy scam, so I hung up straight away. I can see how some folks might fall for it though. Just curious how they managed to find my unlisted number!BT Openreach SupportBT11 yearsThis number has called me quite a few times recently. Each time, the caller claims there’s an issue with my computer and insists I enter some details to prevent it from breaking down. The guy, who sounded foreign, said he was ringing from the "Windows Reading Office." He keeps pushing me to sort it out immediately to avoid a crash. I usually tell him I’m about to leave or simply don’t have the time at the moment.11 yearsMy mum's been getting these annoying calls from someone, and it's really upsetting her.11 yearsI could hear laughter on the line before they hung up on me. Quite a peculiar encounter!11 yearsEvery time we answer these calls, they just hang up immediately. It's rather frustrating!11 yearsThis number called me earlier. I answered as a bloke, but after saying "hello" a few times, whoever was on the other end just hung up. Seems like they might've been expecting a woman to pick up instead.11 yearsGot a weird call from this number the other day. After a strange silence, some bloke with a dodgy foreign accent kept calling me "Madam" and went on about a virus messing with my computer, asking me to turn it on.
