I suspect this might be Norton support reaching out. I've previously purchased items from them and availed myself of their telephonic assistance, yet I'm feeling a tad uneasy at the moment. Could you offer me some guidance on this?

I received a rather alarming call from this number earlier, with a chap claiming to be Keith Johnson, warning me that my email was under threat from hackers. Oddly enough, just a quarter of an hour later, the very same number rang again, but this time the bloke introduced himself as Michael, saying my computer required some driver updates. I've since decided it's best not to pick up the phone to them again.

Got a call from an Asian bloke who claimed there was trouble with my Hotmail and said the culprits were in the Netherlands. He wanted my account info, but I said no way. He said he'd ring me back. I looked him up on this site afterward. 16/5/2016

I'm getting so fed up with these calls, I've asked them multiple times to leave me alone but they just keep ringing.

I received a phone call from someone claiming to be associated with Windows, insisting that I needed to upgrade my computer to Windows 10. When I pressed him on how I could verify he was indeed from Microsoft, he mentioned his supervisor, who supposedly went by the name Kevin. Naturally, I was curious about how to reach him back and he provided me with a mobile number starting with 07. Oddly enough, he didn't seem at all rattled when I mentioned that my son is involved in Windows development at Microsoft. I decided not to get back to him. To my surprise, he rang me again just a quarter of an hour later, but I chose to ignore the call this time. I've now come across this site and it’s clear this was all a ruse. Cheers for the heads up!

got a call from some guy claiming to be from 'microsoft' but there was a lot of noise in the background like he was in some call centre. i told him he was actually not allowed to call me since i'm on the tps register, then just hung up. sometimes, when these calls come through, i just say i dont even own a computer! i’ve tried reporting them to tps and ico but it doesn’t seem to make any difference.

I've had numerous calls coming in from this number for the last three months, roughly twice a week. I tend to ignore the phone whenever this specific number appears on my screen. Just today, they rang, the call rang three times, then paused before ringing again from the same number. No message was left behind. It’s quite peculiar, isn't it? Best, TD London E2

I've been receiving calls from this number for several months now, and they’ve recently begun using my name, claiming that my computer is in danger. I’ve started hanging up as soon as I recognise his voice.

Lately, I've been inundated with calls from this infamous number too. In fact, I've lodged a complaint with Action Fraud, who kindly provided me with a reference number and a password should these pesky calls persist. It’s undeniably a scam operation. If they request you to install TeamViewer or Ammyy, be warned - they’ll gain remote access to your device. I regretfully fell into that trap once and my computer ended up riddled with malware! I had to seek help from a reputable tech company to cleanse it all. Caller: Stuart

Got a couple of phone calls from these folks claiming they were reaching out regarding our Outlook account and that they wanted to investigate some errors on our computer. We quickly told them to clear off!
