11 yearsGot a call from 2227979999 again, total scam! Avoid at all costs.11 yearsToday, I received three calls from a chap with a foreign accent claiming to be from Windows tech support. He started going on about how dire my internet security was, spouting a load of nonsense. I called him out as a scammer and ended the call rather abruptly. Lo and behold, he tried to ring me back, demanding to know why I'd hung up on him! What a cheek! He was quite pushy and rather impolite, too. I urge everyone to inform their loved ones that this number is nothing but a scam!11 yearsI just got a call from these people saying there was a problem with my windows. I ended the call straight away. Then the same guy, speaking with poor English, phoned again. I hung up once more. He tried calling a third time. Definitely a scam.11 yearsI received a call from this number earlier. When I picked up, there was nothing but silence before the call dropped abruptly.11 yearsReceived a call bright and early today while I was still tucked up in bed, and unfortunately, I missed it! After a little digging on this site, it turns out it’s one of those pesky computer hacker scams. Surely there’s some sort of official body that tackles these kinds of nuisances? It's quite frustrating, isn't it?11 yearsI received a call from someone claiming to be from IT support regarding my computer. When she inquired whether it was powered on at that moment, I mistakenly responded in the affirmative, thinking about my iPad instead. She then probed if I could view all the icons on the screen. It was at that point I clarified that I solely use an iPad, not a computer. To my surprise, she abruptly hung up without uttering another word. I dread to imagine what her intentions were. Surely, there must be a way to track down these individuals and put an end to their antics; it’s a number from Luton, after all.Luton11 yearsI picked up the phone and they wanted to talk to the person who owns the computer. Their English was pretty bad. I told them I don’t own a computer and then they just ended the call.11 yearsI recently received a call where someone was inquiring for me. When my partner probed as to the reason for the call, the gentleman claimed it was about my computer. Then he inquired if my partner was a relative. To which my partner replied, 'No,' and just like that, the man hung up abruptly. Quite peculiar!11 yearsBe careful, this is a scam trying to hack your computer. They also call from the number 01869233504, so watch out!11 yearsReceived a call but didn't manage to pick it up.11 yearsCalled some “computer support” number and it felt dodgy, like they might try to hack into my PC or something. Decided to just end the call before they could do anything. Felt fishy right from the start.11 yearsI received a call from someone requesting my husband, but it seems they settled for me instead! They attempted to convince me to permit them to access my computer by typing a command in the run dialogue. I informed them that they’d actually ruined my computer and promptly ended the call. It was rather amusing to thwart their scheme, considering they wasted my time as well! Haha! They claimed to be part of some technical team handling all Windows and Mac computers - what a load of nonsense! Total scammers through and through!11 yearsI received a rather peculiar call from this number earlier. The chap on the line was inquiring about my mother. When I informed him she wasn't around, he continued with, "I presume I'm conversing with a relative?" to which I replied affirmatively and then pressed him on the matter at hand. The caller, an Asian gentleman, claimed to represent the IT Helpdesk that my mum had reached out to regarding her computer setup. I was baffled, as we hadn’t contacted anyone for that purpose! I queried about a laptop and, upon his response, revealed we don’t even own one. At that point, I decided to terminate the call. It's quite alarming, isn't it, how our private details end up in the hands of folks like this?IT Helpdesk11 yearsI received a rather strange call from an individual inquiring about my computer situation. When I mentioned that I didn't own one, they proceeded to ask if I had a laptop, to which I also replied in the negative. They quickly apologised for the inconvenience, doing so with a distinct Indian accent. Curious, I tried ringing the number again, only to be met with a recorded message indicating that I’d dialled incorrectly. What on earth is going on with these callers?11 yearsGot a call from this number, but they didn't bother to leave a voicemail. How frustrating! These types are really tedious!11 yearsToday, at a rather inconvenient time of 14:50 on the 27th of August, I received calls on both of our phone lines regarding some files that had apparently been downloaded unlawfully onto computers during online searches. I made it clear that I had no interest in their claims and ended the conversation promptly.11 yearsInquired about a computer.Submit Your Own Report (01582 571849)
