I received a call from a chap claiming to be Kevin, supposedly hailing from the Microsoft headquarters in Berkshire. He mentioned that due to security protocols, he was unable to disclose his real name. Strangely enough, he addressed me by a fictitious name I had previously concocted for another scammer. He inquired about the last time I had checked my email. I fibbed, saying it was just five minutes ago; he confidently stated he could see it on his system. In reality, I hadn’t even glanced at my email for several hours! From the get-go, the whole conversation reeked of something fishy. When I proclaimed myself to be a Windows expert-true enough-he abruptly hung up. I daresay he could have convinced someone less savvy. I didn’t quite catch the nature of the ruse, but I’m sure it won’t be the last time I receive such a call, and next time, I intend to dig deeper.

Received a call from someone claiming to be Kevin, purporting to be from Microsoft’s headquarters in Berkshire. He mentioned that due to security protocols, he couldn’t reveal his real name. Oddly, he referred to me using a fake name I'd previously shared with another dodgy caller. He inquired about the last time I checked my email, and I, rather cheekily, told him it had been a mere five minutes ago. He insisted he could see my email activity in his system, despite my not having touched my inbox for hours. The entire scenario had a whiff of dodginess from the very first hello. When I mentioned that I’m quite knowledgeable about Windows-truthfully, I am-he promptly hung up. I can imagine how he might deceive folks who aren’t as tech-savvy. I didn't delve into the specifics of his scam, but I’m certain this won't be my last encounter with such trickery, and I plan to see it through next time.

Just had a run-in with a Ransomware SCAM! These chaps pretending to be from Microsoft support are definitely not the real deal. I quickly ended the call with this bloke from India, giving him a piece of my mind about how he ought to face the consequences for his dodgy antics, then promptly blocked the number. I find these scammers absolutely infuriating, especially since they seem to prey on elderly folks who may not even have a clue what Ransomware is. I wonder if the authorities would bother to take action if you kept them chatting whilst recording their nonsense. I suspect there's a rule about having to inform the other party before recording, otherwise it wouldn't count as evidence in court, right? Ah, and they say the law is a bit of an idiot! :)

Got a call from a bloke with an Indian accent asking if a certain person was in, he was ringing the same pub over and over again. Seems like he just keeps calling back.

I got a call from some Indian bloke claiming I hadn’t settled my AOL bill or something. I was like, what bill? Then after a couple of hours, I got another call from the same number, but this time it was an Indian lady. She wanted to talk to “Mr 27272” or something similar, which obviously isn’t my name. I told her there’s no one here by that name and she just hung up on me. Weird.

oh I’m with you on that one - it’s definitely one of those ransomware cons. I just told the guy from India to shove it and hung up straight away. Then blocked the number so I wouldn't get any more calls. Really grinds my gears when they mess about with elderly folks who probably haven’t got a clue what ransomware even means. Not sure if keeping them on the phone and recording the whole thing would help, though. I reckon you have to say you’re recording first or else it wouldn’t count if it went to court. The law can be a bit daft sometimes, right? Haha!

It appears I've encountered yet another insidious Ransomware SCAM (they're claiming to be affiliated with Microsoft support, but that's utter nonsense!) - I swiftly cut off the chap from India mid-sentence, telling him he should be behind bars, and promptly hung up. Afterwards, I blocked the number without a second thought.

It genuinely frustrates me how these con artists prey on vulnerable individuals, particularly the elderly, who may not even have the slightest inkling about Ransomware. One has to question whether the authorities would actually pursue an investigation if you were to keep them engaged on the line and capture the entire scam on tape. I suspect there’s a requirement to inform the individual that you're recording the conversation; otherwise, it may not hold up in court as proof... Isn't it amusing how convoluted the law can be?! :)

Some bloke with an Indian accent rang up saying he was from ‘Microsoft tech support’. I told him to jog on straight away since I knew it was a dodgy call and I don’t even own a PC. Then he just hung up. Honestly, when will these muppets realise not everyone falls for their rubbish?

I recently received a rather dodgy call from 01329289582. The caller seemed to know my name, which immediately put me on guard. He quizzed me about my Windows updates and urged me to boot up my computer to share what I could see on the screen. Then, bizarrely, he wanted to know which key was situated beneath the 'Z' on my keyboard. When I asked why it mattered, considering it was just a regular keyboard, he abruptly hung up on me. Just a couple of weeks prior, a mate of mine fell victim to a similar con. They posed as BT and the NCA, managed to get TeamViewer on her machine, and then coerced her into buying Apple Gift Cards. Be cautious, folks!
