01268776614 Summary (Read all comments)
Phone number ☎️ 01268776614 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance scam posing as Windows technical support, typically calling early in the morning. Callers use heavy accents and employ aggressive or rude tactics to gain remote access to computers, often requesting passwords or software downloads. Many recipients identify the calls as scams and advise against engaging, especially as genuine Microsoft or Windows support does not make unsolicited calls. Attempts to return the call usually result in unrecognised or non-existent numbers. Despite complaints, telecom providers and official services like the Telephone Preference Service appear ineffective in halting these calls. Users strongly recommend blocking the number immediately and never allowing remote access or sharing personal details. This number is best regarded as a fraudulent threat and avoided entirely.

8 yearsReceived a call purporting to be from Windows customer service, asking me to verify my information. I ended the call right away. Just another typical scam, if you ask me.10 yearsGot a call this morning at 8.12am. I’ve got a BT blocker on, and since my partner’s working a late shift, the phone just gave one ring. Honestly, what a daft time to be calling!10 yearsJust another annoying scam call, total waste of time.10 yearsGot a call at 7 in the morning - it really woke us up! How come BT doesn’t do anything about these annoying calls?10 yearsAfter waiting ages, some bloke with a heavy Indian accent finally comes on the line and says, "Robert here. I’m ringing from Windows support about a virus on your PC."Robert10 yearsI received a phone call this morning at 0934 from 01268776614, and the person on the other end had a pronounced Indian accent. They claimed to be representing Windows. As I'm a tad hard of hearing, I inquired if they were actually from Microsoft. He informed me that Microsoft doesn't make calls to individuals. So evidently, they've come up with a different strategy now - calling themselves Windows instead!Microsoft10 yearsNo clue who that was. Picked up the phone, said hello a couple times but got nothing in return. Then I tried asking if they wanted to talk or say anything, and suddenly some Indian bloke goes “no no no” and just cuts me off. Tried calling back but the number doesn’t even come up now - surprise surprise! What a load of nonsense.10 yearsI got a call from this number too, some bloke saying he worked in Windows support. Then when he noticed I’m using a Mac, he passed me on to another guy who wanted me to enter a website in Safari. I told him straight up he was trying to scam me, and he just hung up. Proper dodgy lot, honestly they should be stopped for good.10 yearsJust got a call on my mobile from this number around 7:57am today. A woman said she was ringing from Windows Support about my PC. My reaction? First, I thought, "Here we go again!" and then I quickly ended the call. Turns out loads of others have had calls from this same number. And clearly, the Telephone Preference Service isn’t much use - it’s supposed to block these but it doesn’t seem to do anything.Windows Technical DepartmentTelephone Preference Service10 yearsI just got a really dodgy call from this number. The guy asked about my laptop, and I said I don't own one. Then he started asking about my windows, so I told him I've got loads of windows... like in my house, and they're all fine. His English was awful and he sounded like he was munching his breakfast or something. Definitely felt like a scam.10 yearsI got a call from this number earlier at 11:18am but couldn’t pick up. When I called back, the line said the number wasn’t valid and to redial. Feels a bit dodgy, do you think it’s spam?10 yearsGot a call from some so called Microsoft tech support trying to get into my PC. Honestly, you'd think by now everyone would know this is a total scam. It’s mad that the government and phone companies can’t seem to put a stop to these annoying calls. They always say they can track down anyone's device no matter what, so why isn't anything done about this?Microsoft10 yearsThey called me earlier but I didn’t leave any message on my voicemail. I’ve gone ahead and blocked the number now.10 yearsSo I got a call today at 11.14 from some guy who sounded seriously uninterested, with loads of heavy breathing in the background.

Thankfully, I didn't pick up.10 yearsGot a call from this number at 8 in the morning today, which is a bank holiday, and I ignored it.

He was trying to get me to sort stuff on my computer. I was about to ask him nicely to stop calling me, but then he started shouting and swearing, even bringing my missus into it. I gave him a piece of my mind right back. Not sure if I could actually rip his head off and chuck it where I wanted, but felt that way! Ended it all by wishing him a merry Christmas, still.10 yearsGot a call earlier today but when I picked up there was nobody there.10 yearsThis morning I got a call from 01268776614 claiming to be from Windows, saying someone was trying to hack my account every time I logged in.
