I received an email stating that I was eligible for a loan from their company. However, it was necessary for me to call them to sort out the particulars. I did make that call, but fortunately, no one picked up. Now, having read the remarks posted above, I’m quite relieved. Interestingly, there was no mention of Microsoft or anything related to computers in their correspondence.

I recently received a rather suspicious call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft. The number traced back to Glasgow, yet they mentioned a Microsoft office situated in Reading. As I was letting my computer boot up, I decided to investigate the legitimacy of their claims. I'm quite accustomed to these sorts of calls and have turned it into a bit of a game; I see how long I can keep them chatting before revealing that I exclusively use Apple computers. It's quite entertaining, really, if you’ve got a moment to spare to toy with these charlatans targeting the unsuspecting. They seem to have sharpened their tactics lately-one even inquired about the layout of the keys on my keyboard, a telltale sign of whether I'm using a Mac. He then passed me on to a so-called Mac specialist, yet I still managed to engage him for another ten minutes, happily wasting their time!

I keep receiving calls from this number that they claim to be using, but it's clearly a mobile one. It's just another run-of-the-mill scam from some automated callers!

I received a call following a report I made about a problematic BT line. The chap claimed to be connected with BT, which was quite peculiar. He insisted that I needed to grant him access to my computer, despite the fact that the issue pertained solely to the phone line. He was remarkably pushy about me opening up my device. I requested a callback number and clearly stated that I didn’t want any more calls, assuring him we would reach out ourselves if necessary.

I spent a hilariously entertaining half an hour messing with some Asian chaps pretending to be from Microsoft. As a qualified engineer, it was brilliant to hear them get all worked up while I had a good laugh!

I had a good long chat for roughly 20 minutes with these shifty characters. They spoke with Asian accents yet adopted very posh English names. They just wouldn't stop asserting that they had the authority to represent Microsoft and claimed to possess my computer’s licence number, alleging it was linked to some nefarious activities! I found their monologue quite entertaining and eventually got passed up to ‘Peter’, their so-called manager. The conversation spiralled into absurdity as Peter grew increasingly flustered. Despite my numerous requests to be taken off their contact list, I was told that the reason they wouldn’t comply was because I wasn't giving them a fair hearing. Absolutely ludicrous!

Purporting to represent Microsoft Corporation, are they? I wouldn’t buy into that for a second!

I received a phone call from this number, and now it seems they’ve restricted access to my laptop. I’m a bit at a loss as to what steps to take next.

I've received multiple calls from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, saying they need to verify or eliminate potential hacking threats. They even attempted to establish a remote connection to my computer. I decided to call the number back, but the bloke who picked up didn't introduce himself at all. Is this for real? It doesn’t sit right with me at all.
