He had a South Asian accent and called me by my name, claiming there was an issue with my Windows PC - which I don’t even own. I just popped the phone down by the radio, turned it up loud, and walked off. A couple of mins later, he rang again, sounding a bit plaintive, asking if I’d hung up. I told him nah, I just left him on the line before hanging up proper.

Got a call from someone claiming to be Microsoft saying my computer was hacked. I told them I only use an iPad and don’t have a PC, and they just hung up on me. Bit suspicious if you ask me.

Got a call on 21st Aug 2023 around 10:29. The guy asked if I was who he thought I was, using my actual name, then started rambling about my computer sending out weird messages and mentioned my IP address. I told him straight up he was a scammer, and he threatened to block my computer. I just told him to do his worst and threw a cheeky insult his way! Watch out, they might know your name, but what they really want is access to your bank details.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from Windows support. I told him my windows were brand new, so he tried to correct me saying he meant the ones on my PC. I pretended to be an old bloke and said my lad sorted all that stuff, and he just stuttered and then hung up.

I kept getting calls from 01422440153 and 02922642454, both numbers kept dropping out as soon as I answered. Later, the 01422 number rang again, and this time a guy with an Asian accent claimed he was from Windows Support, saying my computer had some alerts. I knew it was bogus, so I rudely told him to leave me alone and hung up. Almost straight away, the same number called back, and I told them off once more before hanging up. Then they called again and actually threatened to come round because they supposedly knew where I lived. It was well creepy.

Some bloke called me claiming to be "John" from Windows, saying there was some dodgy business going on with my computer. I just told him to jog on and hung up. Then, no surprise, he phoned straight back but from a different number. Proper relentless this one. I ended up leaving him waiting on the line for about 10 minutes until he finally quit. Total SCAM.

Some bloke from overseas said he was with Windows, but honestly, he came off really rude. When I told him his attitude was a bit much, he just ended the call straight away.

Some bloke called claiming he was from Windows support. When I asked him what exactly he did there, he got really rude. I ended the call, but he phoned back right away and kept being horrible. I told him I'd report it, and then he said he was going to call the cops on me. Then he just started chuckling loads, so I just hung up for good.
