12 yearsHonestly, how come these bloody phone scams never get put to an end? It’s got to be illegal, right? Drives me mad, especially when they end up waking my baby who’s finally asleep! So annoying!12 yearsThis number called me this morning, and just like others have said, it was a woman with an Asian accent on the phone. She claimed there was something wrong with my PC. I told her it was working alright. Then she said eventually my computer would start acting up and slow down. I told her I could handle any issues myself if that ever happen. She insisted that wasn’t true and I’d have to get their assistance. I just laughed and said I’m an IT pro, then she hung up on me!!!12 yearsGot a ring just now but ignored it. When I tried ringing back, couldn’t get through. Sounds like a predictive dialling setup to me. It’s a bit concerning that these sorts of calls still get through now and then, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to keep going…12 yearsGot a call earlier and the person was blabbering on about viruses and infections on my computer. Thing is, my setup's running Linux, so that didn’t add up. I told them what they were saying was rubbish and they just ended the call straightaway.12 yearsGot a call from some con artist asking for my mother-in-law, who hasn’t lived here for decades - she actually passed away back in ’99. When I mentioned that, he started going on about some virus on my computer, like one of those classic scams. I just called him out on being a fraud and having rubbish info, then ended the call.12 yearsI just got a call on this number from a woman who said her name was something like Sharon Cross. I say something like because her accent was so thick, sounded Asian, I had trouble catching what she was saying. She mentioned tech support and a helpline or something along those lines, but nothing made much sense. Pretty obvious to me it was a total scam!!Sharon Cross12 yearsHonestly, I just tell these bloody callers to piss off. It doesn’t actually make them hang up, but I swear it gets under their skin a bit!12 yearsHad a call from a woman with a strong foreign accent, I think she might’ve been from India. She said it was regarding my computer, and gave my name too. Thing is, even though it’s my computer, the BT account is under my hubby’s name. So, I just blew my little whistle next to the phone three times - kept it nearby exactly for moments like this!IndiaBT12 yearsGot a call from this number on the 29th October 2014 around 1:55 pm. The person was chatting about computers and files, but his voice was really unclear. When I asked him which company he was calling from, he just hung up straight away.12 yearsGot a call from some bloke claiming to be from a tech firm. He told me there were viruses on my computer and that I needed to open it up. My husband’s in IT, so I know our antivirus is all sorted and current. I asked him why exactly I should open my computer, and the more I grilled him, the less he wanted to chat. In the end, he just cut me off and slammed the phone down! Total scam, no doubt.12 yearsGot this call but no one spoke, just silence. Ended up hanging up straight away.12 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Asian accent claiming to be from "Tech Support." He wanted to access my computer and kept asking for details. I just ended the call before giving anything away.Tech Support12 yearsThis morning I got a call from them and I just chuckled. Told them their scam's been around for like three years and everyone’s onto it now. Told them they’ll have to try a different trick. Then they just ended the call.12 yearsGot a call but nobody said a word on the other end. Very strange.12 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent who was talking really fast. This is the second time he's tried reaching out, asking specifically for my son. He claimed to be from some Tech company and said he wanted to fix software issues my son supposedly had. I told him the police had warned us not to deal with anyone from his firm, and he just cut the call. Total scam, watch out!12 yearsThis morning, I got a call from an unknown number asking for a person I have no idea about, then they just ended the call. I tried calling them back immediately, but the line was unrecognisable.12 yearsI got calls both yesterday and today. It sounded like the same old computer issues again.12 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with a strong Asian accent, claiming my computer had a virus and asked me to access it. She mentioned there was something wrong with my Windows and said she was from the "Tech Support." I told her I'd get in touch with Microsoft because she sounded like a fraud. Then the phone just cut off!Tech TeamMicrosoft12 yearsGot a ring from this bloke earlier, some Asian guy claiming to be Jimmy Wilson. He wanted me to switch on my computer so he could help me install some kind of software. I asked him if he knew my name and address, he only managed to get a bit of my postcode right. Then I questioned how he even knew my PC had nasty software on it. His only answer was for me to open up my computer. After a bit, he sounded annoyed and just ended the call.Jimmy Wilson12 yearsThis has all the signs of a scam. The man on the phone said his name was Peter Jackson and claimed to be from some sort of "software maintenance team for the Windows OS," but he wouldn't give a proper company name or address. I asked to speak to his supervisor, but he flat out refused. You could hear loads of people chatting and making calls in the background, which made it clear it was coming from a call centre. When I asked if he worked for Microsoft, he said no. Then he wanted me to describe exactly what's on my screen, but I told him that info was private and asked again for his company details. Still, he wouldn't reveal anything. When I tried calling his number back to find out more, I just got a message saying the number wasn’t in service. Definitely dodgy.Peter JacksonMicrosoft12 yearsSaw a missed call from this number yesterday, checked it out and defo ignoring it if they ring back!12 yearsIs there seriously no way to stop these calls? I’ve had them a few times now - out of the blue, someone rings up saying my IP address was being accessed and they need to confirm it’s me by asking for the IP. The minute I try to ask more questions, they just drop the call. Definitely sounds suspicious to me!!!12 yearsSomeone called me, asked straight for me by name and then wanted to know if I was the primary user of the home computer. On that day I was expecting a broadband technician, so I figured it might be connected. I asked her to explain what she meant about being the main computer user. She told me she was calling from Microsoft’s technical support about the computer’s internet access. It all felt pretty dodgy to me, so I said I was going to report it to the police, and she just ended the call immediately.Microsoft12 yearsEven though I’m on the Telephone Preference Service list, you keep ringing me up. I can report this and you might face legal action. If you need to get in touch, why not send a letter the traditional way instead?Telephone Preference Service12 yearsI got a call saying my computer’s got some kind of virus in it. Honestly, I’m freaked out, thinking it might be like Ebola or something spreading through my internet. Can someone tell me if it’s safe to use my computer? Need help!12 yearsGot a call from a woman claiming to be from Microsoft’s tech team, and she called me by my name - though she really butchered the pronunciation! When I asked why she was calling, she started asking about the computer we use at home to go online. It all felt sus, so I told her I’d be contacting the Police, and she quickly ended the call. Definitely seemed like a scam to me.Microsoft12 yearsGot a call from this number earlier, and as soon as I picked up, the person stayed silent for a bit then just ended the call.12 yearsI picked up but there was nobody on the other end.12 yearsGot a call from this number, they were asking for someone who's not at my place and I've no clue who they are. Told them they've got the wrong number, and then they just ended the call. Tried calling back to get them to take my number off their list, but it just said the number’s not valid or something :/12 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady asking if there were any issues with a computer delivery I’d received. I said I hadn’t ordered any computer at all. She then tried to ask if I was having trouble with any computer or laptop in general, but when I didn’t respond, she just ended the call. Definitely a scam attempt!12 yearsI tried calling but nobody answered.12 yearsGot a call from an Asian lady asking about some computer stuff. When I asked her for more info, she just hung up on me. Happened around 12.35 pm.12 yearsI called and nobody answered.12 yearsGot a call today and all I could hear was complete silence!12 yearsGot a call from a bloke with an Asian accent who told my missus that our laptop's antivirus wasn’t current and that viruses were getting through. He asked her to turn on her laptop, but luckily she didn’t fall for it. Really glad she didn’t allow them anywhere near the device. These calls are proper dodgy, don’t let strangers near your computer - they might nick your personal info or even your banking details. Stay safe out there!12 yearsAt 1:37 in the afternoon my phone buzzed, but when I picked up, it was completely silent on the other end.12 yearsJust got a call asking about my internet service... any idea why they're suddenly interested?12 yearsGot a call from some bloke with an Asian accent asking about my computer. I told him I didn’t even own one and he just ended the call right away. Definitely a phishing attempt.12 yearsEvery time I pick up, it’s like no one is on the other end of the line.12 yearsSo this lad rang me and got all rude, calling me a moron when I asked him a few questions. Bit odd if you ask me. Honestly, don’t give them a thing, just drop the call. He kept going on about my computer, what a pain! Proper dodgy bloke.12 yearsSomeone called me saying there was an issue with my computer software, but I’m pretty sure there’s nothing wrong. Definitely sounds like a scam to me.12 yearsHad a rather frustrating experience when I contacted the chaps who rung me about a supposed issue with my computer. I made it clear I didn't own one, but they decided to just hang up on me! Fingers crossed they’ve now removed my number from their pesky call list!12 yearsI received a call claiming there was some sort of spam issue on my computer, and they wanted to assist me with it. However, the moment I mentioned that I was married to someone working at Microsoft, they abruptly hung up. Quite the coincidence, isn’t it?Microsoft12 yearsHonestly, it’s as easy as pie, I reckon. The moment those blighters give you a bell, just tell them to “go away” or something along those lines. They just won't take the hint, but it does seem to rile them up a bit!Submit Your Own Report (01527 527147)
