7 yearsThese scammers pretending to be from tech support are so annoying and downright dangerous. They lie without shame and it’s infuriating that there’s no proper action taken against them. I really hope they get nailed soon.7 yearsNever share your details with these folks, they're dodgy and just after your card info. It's heartbreaking especially for older people who get scared when they hear about a virus on their computer, they really don't know what to do.7 yearsSo, I got a call from someone saying there was weird stuff happening on my computer and they could sort it out. When I asked which device they meant, they said the one at my house. Thing is, my computer's not even working right now. I told them I thought it was dodgy and then they just ended the call. Definitely felt like a scam to me.7 yearsI kept rejecting the calls from this number but it just kept ringing again right after I hung up. Never got round to answering it.7 yearsThis number has popped up on my phone three times in just under four hours today. Didn’t pick up; my Samsung flagged it as maybe a scam. It rings a few times then cuts off without leaving a message. I’m just gonna block it.Samsung7 yearskept getting calls one right after the other, like no breaks inbetween. i hung up each time but boom, another rang straight after. honestly, was driving me mad. had to block the number in the end.7 yearsI answered my phone and all I could hear was silence from the other side, no sound at all. Very strange.7 yearsI got a call from this number and when I picked up, there was silence on the other end. Then the call suddenly ended without anyone saying anything.7 yearsComplete scammer, deceitful swindler from Pakistan.Pakistan7 yearsThey rang me three times within just ten minutes, but luckily I missed every call - probably a good thing. I’ll be adding them to my block list.7 yearsBeware of a tech fraud attempting to seize control of your device!7 yearsI said hello and they just cut me off. Had a look at the number later and it’s not one I know. Honestly, it’s about time the telecom companies did something to stop these unused numbers being exploited to hide who’s really calling. Instead of that, they’re busy pushing 5G and wrecking the environment. If we really want to hit them where it hurts, stop buying or signing up for any 5G gadgets or services. That’ll choke their money flow for sure.7 yearsThese scammers somehow manage to grab your personal details from your laptop, like your bank card info and passwords. I've already told the police about it - apparently, they have a team just for cybercrime stuff. The phone numbers keep switching up too. Just yesterday, I got a call from 0131 453 2987, but the day before it was 020 3409 1774, both warning me about some fake virus or problem with my PC. Honestly, they should find real jobs and stop trying to con people out of their cash.7 yearsI just got a call where the person said, "I'm ringing about a Windows computer." I told them that Windows is actually an operating system, and then they suddenly dropped the call. So strange!7 yearsGot a call earlier saying my computer had loads of viruses and that they were from Microsoft. I couldn’t help but laugh, and a few people overhearing found it pretty funny too. The bloke on the other end wasn’t having any of it though, got all annoyed and snapped at me, asking why I was laughing before he just hung up abruptly. Crazy stuff!Microsoft7 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were from Microsoft Windows, trying to get into my computer. Definitely dodgy, so best just ignore and block them.Microsoft7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, said there was an issue with my PC. When I asked what exactly, they just kept saying it was something with Windows. I kept asking for specifics but they just kept pushing for me to turn on my computer and let them access it. Ended up telling them to buzz off and not bother me anymore.Microsoft7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft, saying my PC had problems. I went along with it and said alright. They asked if I could log into my computer so they could fix it. I asked them which Microsoft product they meant, or what computer since I own a few, then they just ended the call.MicrosoftSubmit Your Own Report (01406 062838)
