3 yearsI got a call from someone saying they worked in the Claim Refund Department of a firm that deals with appliances and support. They said I was owed about £149.00. When I told her I wasn’t convinced and was a bit sceptical, she started getting quite rude and pushy, which caught me off guard.Claim Refund Department3 yearsI wasn’t sure who the lady was but she claimed I was owed £149 back for some kitchen gadget. I just found it hilarious and then she suddenly put the phone down. Proper rude that!3 yearsI had a call from someone trying to sell me a new internet service. I told them I was satisfied with my current provider and wasn’t interested in switching. After that, they started getting a bit pushy, so I just ended the call right there!3 yearsGot a call earlier from someone claiming to be Virgin Media, saying my internet was slow and they needed to check it. I told them it was working fine and just hung up. Pretty clear it was a scam.Virgin Media3 yearsGot a call supposedly from Virgin Media saying my internet speed was dropping. I told them that wasn’t true and that I’d ring Virgin myself if there was a problem. They quickly ended the call right after that! Definitely sounded like a scam.Virgin MediaVirgin3 yearsThey claimed to be from BT Openreach, but that’s not possible since we’re with Virgin, who have their own cables and fibre, so we definitely don't use BT’s network.BTVirgin3 yearsTotal scam alert - someone called about a refund for my kitchen!3 yearsGot a call just now at 14:11, but they dropped it after ringing twice.3 yearsGot a call saying I could get some kind of refund on a kitchen gadget or something. Sounded fishy to me - total rip off!3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Virgin warning me about loads of problems with my broadband. I reckon it’s dodgy since my phone number’s listed as ex-directory. Definitely feels a bit risky to me.Virgin3 yearsSo earlier today this lady who sounded like she was from East Asia rang me, saying she was from Virgin Media and had something to do with my broadband speed. She’d called from numbers 01282 715531 and also 0039 3509 49163. When I mentioned I’m a bit hard of hearing, she seemed to get annoyed. I asked her nicely if she could just send me an email instead - thought if she really was Virgin Media, they’d already have all my details. I kept insisting cause recently VM had shut off my hub by mistake and I’d had to get an engineer out not long ago.Virgin Media3 yearsAbsolutely terrible command of English claiming to be Virgin, stating there’s an issue with your internet. Best to just hang up the call!Virgin3 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be BT, told them off good before I blocked the number straight away.BT3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Virgin Media and it was about my internet. Definitely a scam, so I just blocked the number straight away.Virgin Media3 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent claiming I was owed a refund. I didn't hold back calling him out and having a proper go before he just cut me off. Honestly, bit cheeky of him to just hang up like that!3 yearsI just cut the call as soon as I picked up.3 yearsI received a rather dubious phone call today from a gentleman sporting an Indian accent, purporting to represent Virgin Media. He was going on about my supposedly "sluggish" internet speed and attempted to persuade me to download some remote access software. Naturally, my suspicions were raised, and I pointed out that he was clearly not affiliated with Virgin Media and was just a scam artist trying his luck. There was a moment of silence on the line - a good five seconds - before he abruptly cut the call. Quite the cheek!Virgin Media3 yearsI picked up, and right after I said hello, they just went silent and then ended the call. Definitely a scam, stay careful!3 yearsGot a call from 01512015685 saying I was owed a refund from domestic & general. I don't even have an account with them, so I quickly worked out it was dodgy and ended the call straight away.Domestic & General3 yearsBeen getting a few calls lately from someone claiming to be with BT, saying there’s an issue with my internet. It's happened a handful of times over the last few days.BT3 yearsI picked up and all I heard was silence before they just ended the call.3 yearsI got a call on my home phone around 9:20am. It looked like it was from nearby, so I picked up thinking I was waiting for someone to ring. Neither of us said a word, so I just ended the call. Later I looked up the number here and found out it’s a scam - 0151-201-5685.3 yearsI just saw I missed a call from this number. Wondering who it might be?3 yearsJust got a ring about 5 mins ago from someone saying i was owed money from Amazon and asking for my card details. Told them off with some colourful language and then slammed the phone down.Amazon3 yearsI just got fed up and hung up as soon as the answer machine started. Honestly, having a landline feels useless these days with all the scam calls constantly coming through!3 yearsSomeone called saying they were from BT about our internet. We just ended the call straight away.BT3 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from Microsoft. They had some story about my computer not working right and then wanted me to let them on my PC through anydesk. I kept them chatting for a bit, throwing tricky questions their way until they finally got bored and left. Felt good to mess with them for a while!Microsoft3 yearsSomebody said they were from Microsoft but I just hung up straight away!Microsoft3 yearsGot a call about some Microsoft/computer issue, so I’ve just gone ahead and blocked the number.Microsoft3 yearsMy phone automatically blocked the number since I didn’t recognise it, which is great. Honestly, I wish I’d got a phone with call blocking ages ago!3 yearsI got a missed call from this number the other day. Since I’ve never had anyone from Liverpool ring me, I just deleted it straight away. Later I looked it up here and it looks like it’s just another scam call. Glad this site exists to check these things out!Liverpool3 yearsI received a peculiar call without any sound on the other end. I picked up the phone, remained silent, and after a brief moment, the call disconnected on its own.3 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, some Asian lady spoke so quickly I couldn’t make out a word, then she just dropped the call when I didn’t answer back. Honestly, save yourself the hassle and don’t bother with it.3 yearsToday, 6/09/2023, I ignored a call while I was halfway up a step ladder doing some jobs. Really frustrating to get a ring at that exact moment, so I just let it go to voicemail.3 yearsSomebody called saying they were from Sky, trying to hack my number or something. They said it wouldn't cost me anything to 'fix' it. I just ended the call straight away. Watch out for these types!Sky3 yearsGot calls two days running from someone claiming to be with B.T. Yesterday and today, both times.B. T3 yearsAbout 20 minutes ago, I got a call from someone pretending to be from BT. He told me they knew I was having problems with my internet speed and asked what colour the light on my router was - I said it was blue. While we were chatting, I decided to look up the number and saw it was flagged as a scam. I mentioned this to him, but he just kept pushing his story. I then told him I wasn’t going to follow his instructions on my computer to fix an issue that might not even be real, and I hung up.BT3 yearsThey rang me but didn’t say anything or leave a voicemail.3 yearsWatch out, it’s a scam phone call!3 yearsThey said they were from Microsoft, but honestly it really felt like one of those dodgy call centres from abroad. Definitely didn’t sound right.Microsoft3 yearsAfter I cut the first call short, this person rang me again - so this was their second attempt to get through.3 yearsI got a call from this number, no one said anything though but you could definitely tell someone was on the other end.3 yearsI got a call but it just went straight to voicemail with no message, so I reckon it was probably a scam.3 yearsBeware of this scam involving an o2 contract! They sent me a one-time password without even ringing first, clearly trying to trick me. Really dodgy behaviour!3 yearsJust got a call that seemed like a total scam.3 yearsGot a call from a guy who sounded Asian claiming to be with Microsoft regarding my PC. I ended up hanging up right away once he mentioned that.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from this number today, didn’t pick up. It’s from an unknown place. Been getting loads of calls from similar numbers lately, all dodgy I reckon. Just deleted it.3 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Asian-ish accent, said she was from Microsoft Tech Support. When I laughed at her, she got really annoyed. Then she rang me back a minute later from another number, just to tell me I apparently needed help sorting out my life. Proper strange!Microsoft Tech Support3 yearsGot a call from a lady with an Indian accent who said her name was “Anna Smith” and claimed she was ringing from Microsoft about problems with my PC. I tried to keep her talking to waste a bit of her time, but as soon as she twigged I wasn’t fooled, she started getting aggressive and then just hung up. I’ve blocked the number and reported it to the ICO now. (Action Fraud aren’t really helpful unless you’ve been scammed for real - kind of like the police only taking notice if you’ve had something nicked, not just an attempted break-in.)Anna SmithMicrosoftICOAction Fraud3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Sky, saying my internet’s been dodgy lately because of hackers. They told me to look at my router right away. When I said I didn’t think it was really Sky, they just hung up on me.Sky3 yearsReceived a call from a lady with an Indian twang who identified herself as "Anna Smith," saying she was ringing from Microsoft regarding my computer. I decided to waste her time a little for a laugh, but she quickly figured out I wasn’t buying it, turned nasty, and abruptly ended the call. I've now blocked the number and reported it to the ICO. It’s quite frustrating that Action Fraud won’t take any action until you’ve already been duped-almost like the police only showing interest after a burglary has occurred, rather than addressing the attempted scams beforehand.Anna SmithMicrosoftICOAction Fraud3 yearsThis number called me but went straight to voicemail before hanging up. Lately, I’ve had loads of scam calls from different numbers, so I’m blocking this one too just to be safe.3 yearsI've told them several times to stop calling, but they just won't take the hint and keep ringing me.3 yearsAfter looking it up with your help, turns out it was just another spam call. Appreciate the assist!3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn't recognise. Just found out what it was, cheers!3 yearsSomebody rang me saying they were from Microsoft and said there were a couple of dodgy tries to get into my PC. They said they already warned me about it before, which they didn’t. I just ended the call straight away.Microsoft3 yearsEarly this morning, I got a call from a lady claiming to be with Microsoft. She asked if I was the primary user of my PC. I told her straight away it was a scam and ended the call.Microsoft3 yearsThey rang me but didn’t say a word.3 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft, tried to convince me my computer was infected. They kept arguing when I said I didn’t have any problems and refused to give me any proof. Felt fishy right from the start, so I just hung up. Don’t fall for it!Microsoft3 yearsI’m a 71-year-old lady and in just twenty minutes, I’ve had seven calls from these scammers. The numbers kept changing; one was 01512015685 and another from 01132951088. They keep threatening legal action against me. They told me not to shout but I got really upset and stressed out - honestly, I'm all shook up now. How can these people be allowed to keep doing this without anyone stopping them? It’s so unfair.3 yearsI’ve had about five calls from someone claiming to be Virgin Media. Every time I say I’m not interested, but it’s odd how much they seem to know about my broadband details. Really makes me a bit uneasy. Honestly, something needs to be done about this.Virgin Media3 yearsSomeone rang saying they were from Microsoft but were really rude, and as soon as I said anything, they tried to ring a different number right away.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from someone who said they were from Microsoft and oddly knew my last name. They phoned me back later, asking why I had ended the call so quickly.Microsoft3 yearsGot a call from a number I didn’t know. Figured it was probably a scam, so just went ahead and blocked it.3 yearsGot a call and it was some dodgy Microsoft scam trying to trick me.Microsoft3 yearsI got a call through Microsoft Teams, but when I picked up, there was complete silence on the other end.Microsoft Teams3 yearsPicked up the phone and it was just the sound of what seemed like an office buzzing in the background. Tried waiting for a moment but no one spoke, so I ended up hanging up.3 yearsThe person who called me had an Indian accent and claimed to be from BT. She mentioned the last two digits of my phone number and said there was a problem with my connection. When I told her everything was fine, she just ended the call straight away.3 yearsSupposedly calling from Microsoft but used an incorrect address. Definitely a scam.Microsoft3 yearsAs soon as you pick up, these scammers try and get money straight away! Such a dodgy tactic.3 yearsGot a call from 01162126254 today, said it was Virgin warning me about a virus on my computer but I think it was just a scam. They rang again but hung up straight away, such a pain.Virgin3 yearsI got a call from 01512015685 and they claimed to be from Microsoft, but it was definitely a scam.Microsoft3 yearsI got a call from a man with an Asian accent claiming he was calling from Microsoft regarding my computer. It was obvious to me it was a scam. He mentioned he was calling from Reading, but he said it wrong - I pointed that out to him. I kept him on the line for a bit before finally hanging up. He tried ringing me two more times, but I didn’t pick up.MicrosoftReading3 yearsI got a call from this number saying they were with Microsoft and that my computer was at risk. When I asked for more details, the guy said one of his mates was trying to reach him and then just ended the call. Pretty dodgy if you ask me.Microsoft3 yearsDidn’t answer a call from a number I didn’t recognise. There was no voicemail either. I’m guessing it was probably a scam.3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Sky, saying there were issues with my internet which I knew weren’t true. I wasn’t sure what their angle was, but I just told them I didn’t buy it and ended the call straight away.Sky3 yearssome bloke said he was from Sky but when I asked some questions, he just cut me off. the line was really bad and his english was rubbish, he said his name was Alex or something...SkyAlex3 yearsJust a heads up, folks - this appears to be a complete con! They’re masquerading as tech support, but their real aim seems to be to gain remote control over your gadgets. Stay vigilant and don’t fall for it!3 yearsGot a ring around 8 in the morning, which was too early for me to pick up. They didn’t leave a voicemail or anything, so I just assumed it was one of those usual scam calls that tend to come through at this hour.3 yearsDidn’t pick up cause the number looked unfamiliar. No idea who it was.3 yearsSomeone claiming to be from Sky called and asked me to turn on my laptop to check my internet speed. The thing is, our broadband isn’t even through Sky.Sky3 yearsGot a call claiming to be from Microsoft saying my computer was full of viruses. I decided to humour them a bit, but when they asked about an error message, I shot back with "watch out for phone scammers." They hung up straight away. Classic scam.3 yearsI wasn’t home when they called, so my answering machine picked up. It made me listen to the whole thing, which I think costs credit, but they didn’t leave any message, just this awkward silence. Tried calling back a couple of times, but it just said “can’t take calls” or something like that. Pretty sure it’s some kind of scam, so I’ve just added the number to my block list for good.3 yearsReceived a call from an unidentified number - best to block it!3 yearsWatch out, these scammers just want your info - don’t trust ’em!3 yearsGot a call today from what turned out to be another scammer.

Watch out, it seemed fishy, probably just someone wasting my time or a scam.3 yearsSomebody rang pretending to be from Sky, saying there were “errors” on my router causing slow internet. They asked me about the number of lights lit up on the box and then requested my phone number, ideally an Android, so they could send a diagnostic tool - seemed fishy, like malware. When I told them I already checked the router logs and saw nothing wrong, they just cut the call. Just a heads up, if Sky genuinely had an issue, they’d be able to check your router themselves without needing your phone.Sky3 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be Sky, saying there was an issue with my broadband. Thing is, I haven’t had Sky internet for ages. They rang me again today from the number 01162126254, repeating exactly the same spiel, and I think it was the same lady on the phone.Sky3 yearsGot a call from some bloke pretending to be from “Microsoft” saying my PC was hacked or something. When I asked him how he knew and told him I already check for real messages from them, he didn’t take too kindly. I told him I didn’t trust him and thought he was a scammer, which made him proper angry. He started shouting at me over the phone. Usually I just ignore these calls but I was really fed up with messing about today!Microsoft3 yearsThey said they were from Microsoft when they rang.Microsoft3 yearsI kept saying hello a few times but didn’t get any reply, then they just hung up. Bit of a shame really, I was hoping to add another one to my collection of scammer calls on my YouTube channel. I enjoy stringing them along and wasting their time, just for fun. I usually throw them curveballs like asking for the 'password' they said was set up with the firm, or pretending to be calling from somewhere else completely. Gotta admit, it’s a bit of a laugh!Gotta3 yearsGot a call from this number, told them I wasn’t interested and ended the call. Then they rang back and wanted to know why I’d hung up. I kindly told them to not bother calling me anymore.3 yearsI kept listening and there was no one on the line. Like others have said, I think this is just another scam call. These kinds of calls are definitely becoming more frequent lately.3 yearsThey called saying "it's your computer," but yeah, total scam to watch out for.3 yearsI got a call from a lady with an accent who said she was calling from Sky.
