01289403666 Summary (Read all comments)

Phone number ☎️ 01289403666 👆 is reported as a persistent scam operation falsely claiming to be from Microsoft, often using callers with Indian or Asian accents who pressure recipients to grant remote access to their computers. The callers claim there are viruses, hacks, or security issues, attempting to frighten or coerce vulnerable individuals into following instructions that could lead to financial loss or malware installation. Multiple reports note abusive behaviour when challenged, frequent repeat calls at inconvenient hours, and false employee identities. Many have blocked the number or used call-blocking devices, advising others to simply hang up and avoid engagement. The scammers exploit caller ID spoofing, making it appear as a UK number but often routing calls from abroad. Authorities and service providers are urged to intervene, but vigilance and refusal to share information remain the best defence.

Somebody rang me saying they were from Microsoft and that my PC had got hacked. When I wouldn’t go along with their instructions, they threatened to lock my computer. This has been happening quite a bit recently - it’s the second time this week I’ve had this sort of call. I do worry about older folks or anyone who might get scared into following their demands. It’d be great if there was a proper way to put an end to these calls. I guess ignoring them is one option, but they really need to know we aren’t fooled by their tricks.

I got a call from an Asian bloke twice, once over the weekend. When I told him my computer was in a different building, he just hung up. Then he called again a little while ago. Each time, he claimed to be from Microsoft, saying hackers were trying to access my PC. He asked if he could get into my machine, but I refused and said I didn’t trust him. He kept trying to convince me, but I just ended the call. He’s pretty stubborn, that one.

A woman gave the name "Amy Paul" and said she was ringing from Microsoft, telling me my computer was riddled with hackers and viruses! She wanted me to go onto my PC so she could "update my Microsoft Licence ID". Total con. I called her out, even said I worked at Microsoft myself. She mentioned her office was at Thames Valley Park, sounded really sure of herself and didn’t back down at all despite me questioning her!

Dont share any details with this caller. These robocalls show UK numbers but then link you to folks clearly not from here, who can hardly speak English yet use English names. Phone companies really need to block these calls, but it seems they’re raking in too much cash from these con artists to care.

This number kept ringing me about six times earlier today. At last, an Asian man answered and said his name was Mark Anderson, claiming he was from Microsoft. He told me to turn on my computer because someone was trying to hack into it - yeah, right, probably him! When I asked how I could be sure it was Microsoft, he gave an address: 207 Melton Road, Loughborough. Then he started telling me I had to follow his instructions and switch on my computer immediately! I told him I don’t even have a computer, and he just hung up!

This number has called me a couple of times. I try to keep them chatting forever (my longest was about 20 minutes, which might be sad but it does lighten the mood at work). When I’ve had enough or need to get stuff done, I come clean and say I’m onto their game, which always seem to annoy them big time. One lady actually told me I was wasting her time!!!

Just got a call from that exact number again. The bloke said he was Mark Anderson, a ‘tech advisor’, and even gave me an employee ID MG3206 plus said his boss was Kevin Marshall. I rang my landline company and they said they have a new phone coming out that should block overseas robo-calls. They’re also working on a new system to filter out nuisance calls. I’m already on the TPS list, but apparently it doesn’t cover calls coming from outside the UK or EU.

This morning around 9.03am, I got a call from this number, a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be from Microsoft. He said my PC was 'infected' and if I didn’t do what he said, he’d cancel my Microsoft licence and my computer would stop working. I knew it was a scam straight away but played along for a bit before telling him I was onto him and would report to the cops. He then lost it, calling me all sorts of names like "you f***ing idiot" before hanging up.

Got a call from a guy with an Indian accent claiming my computer was sending loads of “error” alerts and said he could fix it for me. I asked him what the cost was (cos I’d had calls like this before, with folks wanting £100 to sort my “faulty” PC). He said it was free. When I said I didn’t trust him, he started threatening to “block” my computer. I just told him to do his worst, and he ended the call.

This number rang saying they were from Microsoft, claiming our computer was infected with a virus and supposedly someone was viewing adult content using it. The caller gave a very English name but had quite a strong Indian accent. Since the story sounded quite far-fetched, I just knew it was a scam. I humoured them for a bit, but they got really irritating, so I told them I wasn’t daft and then ended the call. I’ll be reporting this number to BT and blocking it on my phone.

I knew straight away that 01289 is a Berwick upon Tweed code but I doubt the call really came from there. Berwick’s not really a spot where scammers hang around - they’d probably get caught quick. When you ring that number, it’s like the call never happened, and I reckon whoever’s behind it is aware of that. It’d be quite something to check with BT about the exact address linked to that number and maybe have a chat with folks round there?

Right away I knew that 01289 code belongs to Berwick upon Tweed, but honestly, I don’t reckon the call genuinely came from there. It's hardly the kind of spot where scammers would set up - they'd stand out too much and get caught fast. When you ring the number, it's like the call just isn’t real, which I suppose the caller is banking on. I’m quite curious if BT could reveal who actually owns the number and maybe chat with locals to see if anyone’s noticed anything odd?

This number just rang me up claiming to be from 'Microsoft', saying my PC was full of viruses. The bloke had a strong foreign accent and was really pushy. I told him I'd report it to the coppers. Honestly, don’t pick up if this number calls you!!!

Just like that, my dad got caught up in the same thing today. They got all rude with me when I started asking loads of questions. They somehow managed to get into his laptop, as he thought they were from Microsoft. I must have really annoyed them ’cause they even threatened me! Reported it to the police and I managed to hack back and grab their IP address. Got those cheeky blokes!

Got a really bad call from 01289403666 claiming to be from Microsoft about some illegal stuff!! We said we weren't interested and she hung up, then called back and told my daughter she couldn’t just end the call. Then she accused her of lying when my daughter said we don’t even own a computer!! Didn’t take kindly to a bit of cheek in return ?? Would seriously ignore this number. It’s already called us twice today!

Got a call again from this number today (Sept 15) and, like always, I hit him with the usual line about sex and holidays. Honestly, does he never pick up on it? Such a pain!

I answered the call but there was nothing but silence on the other end. I waited a bit but still no one spoke. Just an annoying call, really.

Total scam alert!!! They said they’re from Microsoft and gave me some address in Thames Valley Park, Wiltshire. The number they called from was 02921286614, probably one of their many fake ones! Do NOT follow any instructions or give them info!! Just hang up straight away!!

dodgy caller pretending to be some 'microsoft technician' saying my pc is full of viruses. funny thing is, i'm a computer engineer myself and my laptop's packed with the newest anti-malware tools, so it’s totally clean!

total scammer. i got a call from a bloke with a thick indian accent claiming his name was mark and said he needed to talk to the owner of my microsoft pc because "it’s seriously full of hackers online." i laughed and told him i don’t have a microsoft computer (i use a macbook and a linux desktop) and then he suddenly asked if i had an apple mac. i just told him he was trying to pull a scam and to buzz off, then he hung up.

I got a call on this number from a woman claiming she was with Microsoft. I’m pretty sure Microsoft never actually calls people out of the blue. I got scammed before by someone pretending to be from Microsoft and lost nearly £1200 from my account. Luckily, the bank got a bit worried and alerted me before any cash disappeared. Hope no one else falls for that kind of trick thinking it’s legit.

I got a call earlier from someone claiming my computer had issues with Microsoft Office on their server. I told them straight I don’t even use Microsoft Office, then they just cut me off. Definitely a scam!

I got a call from Scotland, like I was trying to fix my computer or something. I messed about with the guy for a bit and it really got on his nerves. You can actually hear someone else in the background telling him to call it quits. Total scumbags!!!
