This number, 01282830286, rings me several times daily, usually about 3 or 4 times. When I pick up, no one talks, they just stay silent before hanging up. Other times, they let it ring out without leaving a voicemail, then call straight back. I’m really annoyed with these calls since I need my phone nearby for health reasons as I’m disabled. You can hear some chatter in the background but no one will actually speak to you. The accent sounds Asian, but the caller ID shows it as an international number. Would advise steering clear of this one.

This number rang me up two times today, but as soon as I picked up with my thick Scots accent, they just ended the call both times.

Every day it rings but when I pick up, it's just silence before the line cuts off. Honestly, I'd love if someone actually talked because I get a kick out of dragging the chat on and making them waste their time.

Got a couple of calls from this number myself. Just quiet on the line and then they ended the call straight away.

They keep calling, then just cut off after a short while. It's driving us mad and we have no idea how to make it stop.

I got three calls this morning from numbers like 01282830286, all saying they were from Microsoft or Windows support. When I told the guy the last call was a load of rubbish, he started swearing at me straight away. Proper hassle.

This number has rung me 4 times over the past half day. The first couple of times I picked up, but all I got was silence before they suddenly hung up. The next two times I just let it ring out without me saying a word, again they just dropped the call. After seeing what others have said about this number, I've decided to block it. Last year, my elderly mum got calls like this and was tricked into handing over lots of personal info and even access to her computer. It took ages to sort everything out and make sure she was safe again.

This number keeps calling me over and over but never leaves any voicemail. Whenever I pick up, there’s just silence for a moment then the line goes dead, so I’m stuck not knowing who’s on the other end. Very strange!

Got a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft, telling me that my internet was being used by others. I told them I'd contact BT, my broadband company, about it. After that, I ended the call. This happened on Saturday 3rd of October around 1:30pm.

Hey, just got a ring from this number saying they were from Microsoft. The guy claimed my PC was packed with junk messing things up and wanted to control my keyboard to fix it. He tried walking me through some steps to get remote access, but I didn’t trust it and ended the call. It was on the line for roughly six minutes. Cheers, Geoffrey.

Had two calls in the last hour, both times just silence. Pretty sure it’s one of those auto pre-sale calls. You can tell by the way they act. I hope they’re ready for me telling them off when I answer next time.

My missus picked up a ring from this number just a short while ago. It was a bloke with a foreign accent claiming he was ringing from Microsoft - funny enough, Geoffrey mentioned the same thing a couple of hours back. Since she hates those dodgy sales calls or any of that suspicious stuff, she quickly twigged it was a scam and told him we've no PC here. At that point, the bloke started making weird noises like he’d lost it! When she told him to jog on, he cheekily shot back, “Same to you, madam!” then just hung up. Now, I’m wondering who do I flag this to? BT? Microsoft? What’s the best way to report this? Any advice would be helpful, cheers!
