Phone number ☎️ 01283525456 👆 is reported as a persistent scam involving callers with strong Indian accents claiming to be from Microsoft or computer security services. They allege your PC is hacked, your Windows licence is at risk or being cancelled, and sometimes wrongly assert personal details like your name and address. Calls often include pressure to follow instructions, take control of your computer, or pay money. Many report rude and aggressive behaviour if questioned or challenged, as well as repeated calls from various numbers. Several victims mention no genuine Microsoft warnings arrived by email, indicating it’s a con. The scammers are pushy, sometimes using abusive language, and clearly not connected to any official UK organisation despite these claims.

8 yearsOn the 14th of May, I got a call from a man with an Indian accent and it really took me by surprise. I did what he asked, but then I ended up on a page that said something like ‘let me in’, which has me really concerned. He said he’d ring back on the 17th, but I’m definitely not picking up this time. I’m just crossing my fingers I haven’t made a silly mistake. Thankfully, I had antivirus software already set up before this happened, so I’m hoping that’s enough to keep them out.8 yearsLast Friday I got a call from these people saying they could sort out my computer. Turns out they pretty much hijacked it and even switched on the webcam without telling me. Not sure if this is something I should report, but I ended up chucking my PC away now.8 yearsEveryday loads of different numbers keep ringing me, its really getting annoying.8 yearsI got a call from someone saying my computer got hacked and that my Windows license was about to be taken away. It sounded dodgy to me.8 yearsAfter seeing what people have said here, I've stopped picking up calls from numbers I don't recognise at all.8 yearsJust had a call moments ago from a lady speaking with an Indian accent. She said my computer licence was going to be permanently disabled since there was an attempt to hack it. I told her maybe it’s you trying to hack me or something. She got quite rude after that. I told her to get lost and hang up, and thankfully she did. My phone number is TPS registered, so no idea how she managed to ring me.TPS8 yearsHe said he was calling from Manchester, but I told him I work in the Microsoft IT department and that we never call people about any problems. After that, he just hung up.ManchesterMicrosoft8 yearsYeah, some annoying bloke pretending to be from Microsoft support kept ringing me up. He said they’d been trying to reach me for weeks and had sent loads of messages that I never replied to. Then he started threatening to cancel my Windows license. Total scam. He called me back three times one after another. Best thing is to report these dodgy calls and just hang up straight away.Microsoft8 yearsOver the past couple of days, I’ve been getting continuous calls from someone who says they’re from Windows. She told me that my PC was hacked, they’d taken my identity, and now they’re claiming I’m bankrupt. How do you even block these kinds of calls? I worry they might really scare older folk who aren’t as careful.8 yearsSo these people called me, knew my name and everything, but it was so obvious it was a scam. Their English was really poor and they said they were from Windows, saying my computer was hacked or something. Total rubbish.8 yearsI got a call from someone speaking with a really thick Indian accent, claiming to be from a computer security firm. He even knew my full name. I tried to be courteous and told him I wasn’t interested as I didn’t have a computer. He got quite pushy, over and over asking, “You want your computer shut down, right?” I just told him to buzz off and then blocked the number. I worry about people who might be less savvy and end up falling for these scams. I’m signed up to TPS, so no idea how they manage to get hold of personal info like that.Telephone Preference Service8 yearsGot a call saying my computer would get disabled because of some misuse or something. They even knew my name and where I live. Total scam, don't be fooled by it!8 yearsGot a call earlier today from someone claiming my computer was hacked and they needed to get in. Felt dodgy to me, especially since I never got any warning emails from Microsoft about it. Definitely seems like a scam.Microsoft8 yearsApparently, the Windows Care Centre informed me that my computer had been compromised, and they warned that I could be held accountable for any fraudulent activities and financial losses incurred.Windows Care Centre8 yearsGot a call from a lady with an accent about my PC, bit confusing. I told her i was really chuffed with the windows in my kitchen and bathroom already, and mentioned wanting to get some patio doors. Then she just hung up on me, no warning or anything. Weird, haha!8 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Microsoft support in the UK, saying my licence was going to be cancelled 'cause my PC had been hacked. The voice was a woman, sounds like maybe from India. They kept ringing back even after I ended the call.Windows UKMicrosoftIndia8 yearsSome bloke called himself Jack, with a kinda funny accent, saying he was from Microsoft. He reckoned my account got hacked and I was spamming people for cash (he even told me what the emails supposedly said!). Said they’d already emailed me like a hundred times about it. Felt like a total scam to me.MicrosoftJack8 yearsI just got a call from them, they asked for me by name and claimed they were from Windows. They even mentioned my postcode to make it sound legit.8 yearsdefinitely a scam, they said they were from microsoft but the accent sounded indian, totally suspicious.Submit Your Own Report (01283 525456)
