Phone number ☎️ 01274833005 👆 is reported as a persistent scam caller posing as Microsoft or Windows support, targeting mainly UK residents.

Callers may use aggressive, rude, or abusive language when challenged, sometimes threatening to block computers or demanding payments. The calls often come early in the morning and display a local Bradford area code, but evidence suggests the origin is a foreign call centre, likely in India.

I keep receiving calls from 01274884433... it's quite relentless, really. They seem to ring me almost daily, and occasionally I even get bombarded with two or three calls in one day. I tend to ignore the calls, yet somehow, they don't seem to grasp that I have no intention of responding. Quite baffling, if you ask me!

I've been receiving numerous calls from this number, and each time I pick up, it's always someone claiming to be from Microsoft or Windows, saying there's an issue with my computer. The hilarious part is I don’t even own a computer! I usually just let them know that they're up to no good and remind them that their actions are quite dodgy.

Got a call from some bloke, said his name was David and claimed he was from Microsoft, saying my PC had been compromised. I mentioned my son works at Microsoft and I’d ask him to check it out. The guy kept pestering for my name and talking over me till I got fed up. Then he suddenly said the call was being recorded. As if that bothers me, ha!

The phone has rung a couple of times, but I’m not one to pick up calls from unfamiliar numbers. If it's important, they ought to leave a message on my voicemail. Naturally, they haven't, so whoever it may be will just have to do without a response from me!

Waking up to the phone ringing at 7:20 in the morning is quite unsettling, isn’t it? It makes you instantly think the worst, like who might have passed away? It’s high time the powers that be took action against these nuisance calls. Is there any oversight on these scams at all?

I received a call from a chap with a foreign accent, claiming to represent some computer service. When I mentioned that I didn’t possess a computer or laptop, there was an awkward pause. I then inquired if he had any further questions. To my astonishment, he told me to "f" off not once, but twice, saying I had been quite impolite to him. It really is about time we put an end to these sorts of unsolicited calls from such dubious companies!

Theyve been ringing me about three times a week for the past couple of months. Most times I just let it ring or hang up straight away. Would block the number if my old landline had that option but sadly it dont. Just ignore it and tell mates and family to do the same. Just checked your info - on my phone it comes up as an international call even tho it's from Bradford! X

Got a call from this number around 11:30 today. The bloke claimed he was from Microsoft and said my computer had been compromised. I asked him, "which one? The one with Windows 95, Windows NT, XP, or Windows 7?" He answered "XP" and told me to switch it on. I told him no, I'd rather enjoy my coffee than fall for some dodgy scam.

I got a call from a guy with an Asian accent who reached my answerphone and just kept repeating, "Hello, hello, can you hear me?" He then called me by a name that isn’t mine or on the message, but never said who he was. At the end, he said something about "very rude behaviour" - I guess he was accusing me of being rude for having an answerphone or not picking up, not himself. Quite strange!

Received a call at half past eight this morning while I was still tucked up in bed, so it went to voicemail. They didn’t leave a message, and when I looked up the number, I got a bit uneasy about the 01274 area code. A quick search revealed it was a known scam. Part of me wishes I'd picked up because I have my own little method of dealing with these callers. You see, I keep a whistle by the phone-like something a bobby would have. I usually let them rant on for a bit, and then I give my whistle a good blow. The noise that erupts is absolutely deafening for them! I highly recommend this tactic; it's rather gratifying to dish out a bit of discomfort to those nefarious characters.

I've had the misfortune of receiving three calls from them, with two coming through this very morning. I made it quite clear I wasn't interested and hung up. However, she took it upon herself to call me back and seemed quite irritated about me hanging up on her. I explained that I was just waking up from a night shift and wasn't in the mood for chatter. She's apparently planning to ring again later, but I'm prepared for her this time!

I received a phone call from someone named Isaac, who seemed to have an Indian accent. He claimed to be representing Windows and was inquiring about an issue with my computer.

I received a rather curious call from someone claiming to be 'David' from Microsoft, though his accent was distinctly Indian. He insisted there was an issue with my computer and promised he could sort it out. He asked me to power on my PC. Typically, I like to mess around with these callers, dragging the conversation out since it keeps them from targeting someone more susceptible. But alas, it seems he figured out my little game and abruptly ended the call. How very disappointing! I find great amusement in giving them a run for their money!

I just had a rather dubious phone call from this number. A bloke with an Indian accent purporting to be from Microsoft insisted I had a serious security issue with my Windows system. I quickly informed him that I'm not on Windows at all. He then had the cheek to inquire whether I owned an Apple Mac! I've encountered a fair few of these dodgy calls, usually from 'International' numbers. It's definitely a ruse. I made it clear that I would be reporting him to the authorities.

I recently received a rather unsolicited phone call from this number, with the caller wanting to chat with my spouse regarding our computer setup. I firmly requested the company's registration number as a precaution, as I suspected something might be amiss (which was a tad fabricated!). When he pressed me for details about my concerns, I reiterated that I needed the registration information before engaging further. The next thing I knew, he was insisting on speaking to my husband again, but I stood my ground and demanded the number first. This seemed to infuriate him, and he practically erupted into a stream of expletives, labelling me as incredibly rude and telling me to shove off. I decided enough was enough, hung up, and made it clear that I'd report him should he attempt to contact me again.

Got a call from this number, someone wanted to talk to my husband about our computer. I asked for their company registration number as I was checking for fraud (just made that up!). They asked why I needed it and what I was searching for. I said I'd need that number before answering anything else. Then they insisted on speaking to my husband again, but I refused till I got the number. Suddenly, they started screaming abuse at me, calling me rude and telling me to go away. I hung up and said I'd report them if they called again.

Some bloke with a foreign accent claimed he was calling from Microsoft. When I questioned whether it was a scam, he insisted he'd prove it. So I played along and he asked for my PC’s serial number. I just made up a random one and he said it was right! Then I told him I actually use a Mac, and he accused me of lying and wasting his time. Then his mate jumped on the line, called me a troublemaker, and even said my wife hated me! That’s when she started laughing out loud and they quickly hung up. I've blocked the number now, but at least I managed to waste their time a bit.

Earlier today, I received a rather intimidating phone call from this number. The chap on the other end had an Indian accent and it was around 0830 on Friday, 26th October. It was quite evident that he was rather lost in the conversation, especially when I mentioned that I own multiple computers. However, I only use Macs for my online activities!

During the first call, I made it quite clear that I recognised it as a scam and demanded he cease calling me. After I hung up, he rang again within half a minute. My wife picked up the phone this time and informed him that she needed to record the conversation. That seemed to put an end to it.

Today, we received multiple calls from this number, and the person on the other end, who had a distinct Asian accent, appeared rather clueless. He kept insisting there was some kind of red alert concerning our computer. As the conversation progressed, he became increasingly irate and even resorted to abusive language, threatening to come to our home and involve the police, claiming that we were engaging in illegal activities from our computer. Meanwhile, I was on my mobile trying to alert the authorities, while my husband continued to engage with this man on our landline. Despite our clear statement that we recognised this as a scam, he persisted. If you happen to get a call from this number, I strongly urge you to block it immediately. Do not disclose any personal information to him.

I received a call from a chap with a distinctly Indian accent, introducing himself as Peter. The background was bustling with what resembled a call centre atmosphere. He claimed to represent the Microsoft Cyber Security Centre and insisted that my computer was hit by a virus. He even provided a callback number: 02081446448! It was blatantly a scam. Not long after I hung up, the phone started buzzing with multiple calls from the same lot. Quite dodgy, if you ask me!

I received a rather concerning call from a chap named Jason, who insisted he was representing Microsoft. His accent was distinctly Indian, and the faint hum of a call centre buzzed away in the background. When I handed the phone to my husband, Jason quickly escalated his narrative, asserting that our computer had been compromised and needed to be rebooted immediately. However, when my husband began to question this alarming claim and expressed his doubts, Jason's tone shifted dramatically; he became noticeably agitated and started shouting.
