It was one of those PPI calls, they rushed through saying the company name so fast I didn't catch it at all.

Got a ring from this number and the person sounded a bit off, like their accent was odd. They claimed to be calling from the BBC or something like that. Quite sus if you ask me. Number was 01325 952258.

Got a call from this softly spoken Asian bloke earlier, chatting about PPI. Seems like he’s got his fingers in many pies!

Steer clear of this number; it’s a complete fraud! I've received calls from this individual twice on our company line, and honestly, his accent is so thick I can hardly grasp what he’s on about. He claims to be from some sort of computer support division. I kindly turned him down but jokingly suggested I could connect him with my distant cousin in Nigeria who's just come into a fat wedge of cash.

A chap with a thick accent, barely managing to communicate in English, claimed he was from Microsoft. The moment he started speaking, I thought, "This isn't right," so I decided to play along - after all, he was footing the bill for the call. I immediately inquired about how he had procured my number, but he completely bypassed that and launched into his droning tale concerning "my" computer. I retorted, "Which computer are you on about?" He insisted, "Your computer." So I shot back, "I don’t even own a computer! Why on earth are you ringing me? Where are you calling from?" He quickly circled back to his rehearsed script, so I just sat there and let him talk for a bit without engaging. Eventually, I hung up. And that’s how it’s done!

I went out with the chap (a bloke, not a lass) but completely spaced on mentioning that I don’t own a Windows PC.

Just had a ring from 01327 260778, some bloke with an Asian accent. He kept asking for my wife but only used her initials, which was odd. When I asked who it was, the call abruptly ended. Strange behaviour.

This number rang me up earlier. A softly spoken man, who sounded Asian, claimed I'd reached out to them before and wanted a callback?? I quickly told him I wasn’t interested and asked him to remove us from their contact list. He kept insisting he had some questions to ask, so I explained that it wasn’t a good time since my noisy baby grandson was with me and I couldn’t hear clearly. That’s when he rudely asked, ‘Are you deaf, madam?!’ He didn't give up, so I pointed out how impolite he was and suggested he needed better training in dealing with customers. Then he turned it around, accusing ME of being rude and wasting HIS time. The cheek of it! He even had the nerve to say I should go back to school with my grandchild to learn how to speak to him! I was gobsmacked and just ended the call there and then. I dialled 1471 straight away to get his number so I can try to report this appalling behaviour. - caller: Asian man, call centre tone

Lately, I've been getting quite a few calls like this, mostly straight to my voicemail without any messages left. One time I actually picked up, and it was an Asian woman who knew my name - odd, since I’m ex-directory! She claimed there was an issue with my computer. I told her I work in IT, don’t use Windows at all, and even noted down her number. Right after that, she went silent. When I tried ringing her number back, all I got was BT saying “number not recognised.” So not only was it a scam, but they’re spoofing their caller ID too. Like others have said here, I then dialled 1471 to find out the last call and quickly followed up with 1477 to report it - supposed to be the way to flag malicious calls, but only works if you do it soon after the call and haven't had another call since. Not sure if it actually helps, but if my provider ignores it, their spam list is sure to get longer!

I received a rather dubious call today; it was immediately apparent that it was a con. I do hope others haven’t fallen for it. When I mentioned that my husband is into building computers, she promptly ended the conversation!

I received a call from someone claiming there was an issue with my computer. I told them there wasn't, but the bloke on the other end was quite difficult to comprehend. He kept repeating, with a rather hostile edge, that there was indeed a problem. In the end, I decided to cut the conversation short and hung up.

Received a call from something claiming to be 'Circle of Life’ regarding my PC-definitely a dodgy vibe! I’ve just ended the call. Be cautious, everyone!

This afternoon, precisely at 4:20, I received a rather aggressive phone call claiming that I was the primary user of my computer and that I had encountered a significant issue. Their tone became quite rude, and rather than engage further, I decided to terminate the conversation. I've since taken the precaution of blocking the number.

Received a call from this number around 14:20, and it was a rather challenging conversation with someone who had an accent I couldn’t quite place. They claimed to be ringing regarding my ‘computer’ - I was baffled! When I asked which computer they meant, they then inquired if I was the primary user of it. I promptly informed them that I don’t own a computer, and just like that, they hung up! Clearly, it was just another dodgy scam attempt - stay vigilant, folks!

They kept asking loads of questions about my laptop, seemed like they were trying to pitch some kinda software insurance or something. I just ended up hanging up on them straight away.

Got a phone call from a man with an Asian accent, but I couldn’t really make out the company he was with. He mentioned there was an issue with my computer. I was like, what computer? Then he asked if I was the primary user of the computer. I replied, I do have one? Suddenly he just hung up on me. Pretty sure it was a dodgy scam trying to either push fake software or hack into my PC.

I received a call claiming there was a problem with my computer, which struck me as rather odd since it didn’t come up with a number. I shall be making a report about this.

Received a call this evening from this number. I could hear some background chatter typical of an office, but nobody actually said anything before the line went dead. Seriously, do people still get tricked by these sorts of scams?

I had a chap ring up claiming there was an issue with our computer, but when we pressed him for the name of his company, he refused to share it. He abruptly hung up as soon as we started probing further. Very dodgy, if you ask me!
