3 yearsThis was definitely a scam.10 yearsGot a call saying they were from Microsoft HQ, but it was definitely a scam! Don’t trust those numbers.Microsoft10 yearsA lady with an Indian accent rang us up to inform us that our computer had been compromised and claimed to represent Microsoft. She insisted that we power up our machine and access a particular file, but we chose not to! After we ended the call, she promptly rang us back, clearly irked that we had disconnected. She warned us that we'd be in danger of losing our computer because Microsoft would be shutting us down. After we hung up once more, she tried calling again for a third time!Microsoft10 yearsSometimes I get a couple calls in one day. Nowadays, when the phone rings, I just hold the handset close to my telly with the volume turned right up and leave it like that until they hang up.

I kept telling him it was a scam, but he just wouldn’t hear it and eventually just dropped the call. Bet this number’ll keep buzzing me all day.Microsoft10 yearsGot a call from some bloke saying he was from Microsoft, but sounded like a proper Pakistani scam. I just ended the call straight away.
