Phone number ☎️ 01254545898 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation posing as Microsoft support, targeting UK residents with aggressive and abusive calls. Callers claim computer issues, attempt to extract personal information, and pressure victims into compliance.

The callers often have strong foreign accents, are sometimes silenced before abruptly ending the call, or have scripted pauses. These calls are recognised as fraudulent by recipients, who recommend ignoring or blocking the number to prevent falling victim. The frequency and hostility of these calls are distressing, and vigilant scepticism is advised, especially for those less familiar with technology or vulnerable to manipulation.

8 yearsThis number keeps ringing me, saying they're from Microsoft. Yesterday I told the bloke I'd ring back and when he asked why, I said I wanted to see where he was really calling from. He then told me I was a "bloody stupid woman." I fired back that he was daft for keepin' up the lies and callin' me again!Microsoft8 yearsLuckily, I recognised this number from before and I’m really thankful for everyone who’s shared their experiences on here. So, when it rang just now, I decided not to pick up!8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft, telling me my computer was full of errors. I knew straight away it was a scam and ended the call. Then he rang back, started shouting at me for hanging up on him! I cut him off once more but honestly, it was quite disturbing.Microsoft8 yearsGot a call about computers and Windows, was all the same spiel. I said I didn’t own any of that, and he just snapped, calling me a liar and swearing at me. Asked to speak to his manager, then he came back pretending to be some woman named Sharon Stone. Eventually, a different person came on and told me I was wasting their time and lying. Properly annoying and upsetting, that one.Sharon Stone8 yearsToday, I got another call from the same bloke, saying my computer’s serial number was involved in some shady business. I’ve had these calls before so I wasn’t fooled. I asked him for the serial number, and it was obvious he just pulled it out of thin air! I told him the computer wasn’t mine and he started getting all shouty, asking how I could be so sure. Eventually, I just told him to stop wasting my time ‘cause I knew it was all a load of rubbish. Then he went and threatened to "muck about with the computer" to prove me wrong - mad or what?8 yearsGot a bloke today claiming he was with Microsoft, can you believe it? This was the second time this scumbag rang me in one day. When I told him I knew he was pulling a scam, he actually called me some awful names! Absolute nightmare.Microsoft8 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Jason just a short while ago. He asked if I was the primary user of my computer, to which I cheekily answered, "Am I really?" That seemed to throw him off big time. We ended up with a really daft back-and-forth, repeating what each of us had said. Eventually, I asked him what exactly he was after, and he just stayed silent, breathing heavily for about 30 seconds before abruptly ending the call. Shame, as I reckon some folks might fall for this trick.Jason8 yearsJust got a call from someone who claimed his name was Jason. He asked if I was the primary user of the computer, to which I responded with “Am I?” That seemed to throw him off because we ended up having a really silly chat, repeating what each other said. When I finally asked what he wanted, he just sighed deeply for ages before hanging up. I worry some people might actually fall for this sort of thing.Jason8 yearsGot a phone call that looked like from some call centre, but they didnt leave any message or say anything. Quite odd.8 yearsGot hit with one of those quiet calls again, just sat there in silence for nearly a minute.8 yearsMy call blocker showed the number was international and I immediately pressed block!International8 yearsAfter a long pause, this woman with an English accent just says "Goodbye" and hangs up. Proper annoying.8 yearsSo, this guy calling himself Jason from Microsoft rang me up, his accent was really thick Asian or something. He claimed my PC was compromised and wanted to know if I was the primary user. Then he asked what I usually did on the computer and what was visible on my screen right then. When I mentioned I had banking stuff open (which I totally didn’t), he just dropped the call out of nowhere. Pretty obvious it was a scam!JasonMicrosoft8 yearsGot a call from a bloke with a foreign accent, sounded like he might’ve been Indian or something, saying he worked for Microsoft. He told me to type some weird letters into Google - I didn’t actually do it but said I did anyway. Then he asked what I was seeing on my screen, so I told him “the police are watching this site and you’re in big trouble.” He freaked out, called me a hacker and said I’d be in huge trouble before hanging up on me 😱. Definitely a scammer. You’d think the authorities could crack down on these muppets faster.MicrosoftGoogle8 yearsNo words at all, then a woman just quietly says "bye." Bit of a bother, honestly.8 yearsToday, I got a phone call from a guy with a strong Asian accent, said he was from Microsoft and there’s something wrong with my computer. I tried to get him to explain more but he kept hesitating and mumbling. I even heard other voices in the background and someone mention eBay. After a while, I got bored and just hung up. These calls are really annoying and should be banned.Microsoft8 yearsSomebody said they were from Microsoft, but I don’t even have a Windows PC. They called me three times one after the other. I’ve blocked the number now.Microsoft8 yearsIt was definitely a cold call or some kind of spam as soon as my voicemail picked up, they just hung up.8 yearsI keep getting calls every day from some guy who says he's from Microsoft, and he's really horrible on the phone. The last time, he even used disgusting sexual language and was super aggressive. I've never dealt with such a nasty spam caller before. Honestly, it was quite shocking.Microsoft8 yearsSome bloke with an Asian accent said his name was Jason and claimed to work for Microsoft. I didn’t let him get far before I just ended the call. I honestly thought these scams were a thing of the past by now.JasonMicrosoft8 yearsGot a call from some bloke I swear I told to stop ringing me ages ago. Sounded just like him as well.
