8 yearsBeware of this caller who is insisting that they’re from the Microsoft support team. They’re simply out for your personal information, masquerading as if your laptop has been compromised. Don’t fall for it!Microsoft8 yearsThis number keeps calling even after we’ve blocked it. Annoyingly, it rings a couple of times before our call blocker picks up and cuts it off. Then we have to see who tried to get through!8 yearsI missed a call around 9 in the morning and when I checked my 1471, it showed the number 01294215118. I get calls like this pretty often, but I just never bother answering them.8 yearsSo, I grabbed a whistle from eBay for just a quid. Whenever they call, I act like I’m firing up my PC, wait a few secs, then blow a proper long note right into the phone. Honestly, I’d hate to be the one with headphones on the other end! It doesn’t totally block the calls, but it definitely makes them less frequent.8 yearsthis guy called me, sounded like he was from microsoft, talking some rubbish about my computer being hacked. i just laughed it off and that made him really cross and quite rude actually. i couldn’t stop myself from chuckling more and told him to stop scamming folks and go find a real job. proper disgusting how they do that to people.Microsoft8 yearsSome bloke said he was from the Microsoft Tech Team. I told him I already had his number and said I’d be reporting him, then he just cut the call. Total scam, no doubt about it. I’ve passed the number on to Microsoft.Microsoft8 yearsGot a call from this number earlier today. The connection was rubbish, so I couldn’t hear much clearly, but the voice sounded pretty aggressive and quite intimidating.8 yearsKeeps calling me constantly and is perpetually rude and quite aggressive. It’s baffling that even the BT call blocking feature doesn't seem to deter them at all!BT8 yearsHeads up everyone, there's this annoying 'MICROSOFT HACK SCAM' going around. These scammers keep ringing my phone over and over, like they won’t take no for an answer. Seriously, don’t entertain them for a second. Just hang up straight away and warn your mates too. A few people I know ended up falling for it and ended up losing cash. Stay safe!8 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent using the number 01294 215 118. He claimed he was calling from Microsoft, saying my computer was at risk. I asked him, "Really? What kind of risk?" Then he started telling me if I didn’t let him sort it out, Microsoft would blacklist me. I told him, "Alright then, go ahead and blacklist me." He just hung up on me. Felt pretty threatening and just a real nuisance.Microsoft8 yearsGot a call at 7:55 this morning from 01294215118. The person claimed my Microsoft PC was hacked. I just politely ended the call straight away.Microsoft8 yearsGot a call from this number at about 2.02 pm today, all I heard was silence followed by some clicking noises, so I just ended the call.8 yearsI got a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft, but when I asked questions, they got really impatient and rude.Microsoft8 yearsA bloke called James Matthews rang me saying he was from Microsoft and that my computer was under some kind of hacker attack. He wanted to know if my PC was switched on because he said he needed to access it. When I asked where in the UK he was calling from, he said Reading and gave me a number beginning with +44, which I found a bit strange since you wouldn’t usually use the international code when calling inside the UK. I politely thanked him for the call and then hung up.James MatthewsMicrosoftUK8 yearsGot a call from someone who claimed to be Emmanuel, saying he was from Microsoft and that my computer was hacked. I just hung up straight away because it sounded like a total scam.EmmanuelMicrosoft8 yearsI’ve gotten nearly 20 calls over the past couple of days.8 yearsI told the bloke it was really nice of him to ring, but he suddenly got really rude, offensive and started swearing. I've blocked this number now, but I'm worried he might try again from another one.8 yearsI picked up the call but it just cut off straight away. I was really looking forward to catching that amazing Commonwealth Games routine, so this was pretty frustrating.8 yearsgot a call from some bloke called james, claimed he was with microsoft. said hackers had taken control of my pc, which made me laugh a bit. he threatened me saying if i didn’t follow his instructions yesterday, i’d be blacklisted. told him to shove it, sorry for the swearing. i really don’t get how these people are able to bother others like this??JamesMicrosoft8 yearsPhone suddenly stopped working out of nowhere.8 yearsJust to clear it up, 01294 is actually for Ardrossan up in Scotland, not Reading as some might think!ArdrossanSCOTLANDReading8 yearsTwice today, the number showed up but I chose to ignore it. Really happy I didn’t answer because they gave off a bad vibe.8 yearsGot a ring at 11:10 but my call blocker just wouldn’t let it through. Seeing other folks’ comments, looks like this number’s dodgy and best to steer clear.8 yearsIn the last hour, the phone rang a couple of times while I was on a ladder. Each time I picked up, there was silence on the other end before the call dropped.8 yearsSo I got a call from someone called Aron Finch claiming to be from Microsoft. Said I was infected and that I needed to check my event viewer or something. Bit weird and sounded very pushy. Also mentioned India at some point, which made me even more suspicious.

Not falling for that!Aron FinchMicrosoft8 yearsGot a call from an Asian guy claiming to be from Microsoft, saying there was something wrong with my computer. I told him that was odd since I don’t even own a computer. Then he just started telling me to ‘go to hell’ or something like that. I told him the same and quickly hung up. Total scam!Microsoft8 yearsGot two calls earlier today and just ended them both straight away.8 yearsSome bloke with an Asian accent called me, claiming he was from Microsoft, saying my computer had a virus.
