9 yearsIn the past few days, I've had three calls from this number, and every time, the person just hung up right when my voicemail kicked in. Pretty sure I don't know anyone from "Edinburgh" with that 01315 code either.Edinburgh10 yearsGot a call from a lady speaking with an Asian accent, she said something about my computer. When I told her I didn't own one, she just put the phone down straight away!10 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Asian accent saying something about my computer.

When I told her I don’t even have one, she just ended the call straight away! Weird.10 yearsI keep getting calls from this number really early in the morning, but when I answer, there's no one there. It's so annoying!10 yearsRight away, I knew it was a scam because Microsoft's built-in security is pretty solid for spotting viruses and malware. I pretended to go with it for a bit, but then I told her it was a fraud. When she argued it wasn’t, I claimed I didn’t even use a Microsoft PC (which wasn’t true). Just like that, she ended the call!Microsoft10 yearsI got a call from this number at 8:15 in the morning on a bank holiday, and it woke everyone up in my house! The person said they were calling from Microsoft and that my computer had a virus and needed fixing - total nonsense! They're clearly trying to scam people and steal bank info. Watch out for these irritating scammers! Just hang up straight away and don’t bother answering them.Microsoft10 yearsI got this call and it was obviously a scam, they were trying to get into my laptop and pinch my online bank stuff. When I called the bloke out on it, he just swore at me and said he’d block my PC, proper laugh!10 yearsThey've called me a couple of times but I never got to talk. Just like me, they’re probably ex-directory too.10 yearsTotally a scam. Got a phone call this morning around 8am from 01315258599. Like others mentioned here, the caller claimed to be from Microsoft warning me about a virus on my PC. I didn't buy it and challenged him, which seemed to make him uneasy. Before that, he actually read out my computer licence number - something like 888DCA60FC0A11CF8F0F00C0########. He kept insisting I should check it right away, but I told him I’d do it later myself and would contact Microsoft properly. He threatened I'd lose my computer if I didn’t, but I just told him to get lost. In the end, he just hung up.Microsoft10 yearsI got a call from a lady with an accent, probably not even close to Edinburgh, saying she was from Microsoft regarding my PC.EdinburghMicrosoft10 yearsCheers for the details, I’ve gone ahead and put them on my block list now.10 yearsI didn’t pick up and there wasn’t any voicemail either.10 years'Microsoft' has flagged a potential virus, possibly a con aiming to steal banking information.Microsoft10 yearsHad a bit of fun with the caller, asked straight up for the business address, the manager’s name, and their website. Told them I’d be sending over an invoice for £1000 for taking my time, according to my terms and conditions.10 yearsThis number called me three times already. On the fourth time I picked up, a lady with a noticeable Asian accent claimed she was from Microsoft in California. She told me there was a virus on my computer and asked me to switch it on so she could help fix it over the phone. I said I’d have my son contact Microsoft to check if the call was genuine and then ended the call. No voicemail or message was left, which made me even more suspicious. Turns out, it was exactly what I thought - a scam! Glad I didn’t fall for it.MicrosoftCalifornia10 yearsThis is the second occasion I've got a call like this from someone with an Asian-accented voice pretending to be a Windows tech, saying there's an issue with my laptop. The first time I let them ramble on, but this time I just replied with a quick two-word answer and ended it.10 yearsOver the past few days, I've had about 5 calls from this number. I never answered, but whenever I did and the answerphone kicked in, the caller just hung up straight away.10 yearsMy phone showed it was an international number alongside this one, which usually screams scam or nuisance, so I just ignored it and they didn’t leave any voicemail either.10 yearsTwice in just two days, we got a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft.

She asked a couple of questions but couldn’t really give me proper answers, which made me feel a bit iffy, so I just ended the call.MicrosoftStates10 yearsSomebody rang up saying they were calling about problems with my computer.10 yearsI got a call where the caller ID said something like "international," and this number popped up too, which seemed a bit dodgy to me, so I ignored it.
