Reports on phone number 01614649732
4 yearsI've received five calls before noon today, and the day's just getting started!4 yearsI didn't answer because the number was unfamiliar to me.4 yearsI encountered one of those classic scams where the caller claimed to be from Microsoft, insisting that my system had been compromised. He attempted to feed me some supposed 'exclusive' reference number on my computer, but I couldn't help point out that the exact same number popped up on two other machines at my workplace. I strung him along for nearly twenty minutes before he finally threw in the towel. And just to clarify, I'm still holding my breath for a call from the authorities, as I've been told that I’m now liable for this alleged fraudulent behaviour and might be facing jail time! Haha!MicrosoftHaha4 yearsGot a call on my landline from 01614649732, but no message was left. Bit frustrating, honestly.4 yearsGot a call from 01614649732, some Asian lady claiming to be from Microsoft, saying my PC was all messed up. I told her I was actually using my computer right then. Didn’t sound impressed, so I just let her carry on jabbering to waste her time. Eventually, I hung up on her. Next thing, I get another call straight away from a bloke, sounding proper annoyed asking why I’d cut him off. I just told him that Microsoft scams are ancient and he should find a real job instead of trying to con folks. Then I dropped the call. Proper funny!Microsoft4 yearsTrue Call call blocker caught this call and gave a message saying: "Unknown number / Whisper / Ended call while being checked".Caller4 yearsGot a call from someone saying she was from Microsoft, and I just shot back, "I’m guessing you’re after a gig with sex and travel involved? Tell you what, jog on!"Microsoft4 yearsYesterday I got a call from 01614649732, a woman claiming to be from Microsoft. I told her I wasn’t interested and suddenly she started shouting at me. I asked her who she thought she was talking to, and she snapped back with “you.” I quickly told her she wasn’t anyone I wanted to speak to anymore, hung up, and then blocked the number.Microsoft4 yearsIf all the folks who've checked this number had a word with their MPs about these bogus foreign calls pretending to be from UK landlines, maybe something would actually be done by now. No idea, but if noone makes a fuss, then nothing changes. Problem is, it’s usually just the elderly, the less savvy, or the vulnerable who get stung or end up with dodgy software on their PCs thanks to these scams - so I suppose most people just don’t give a toss or see any point in trying.UK4 yearsWhat a clever scam! I managed to keep the caller chatting for more than 10 minutes. She kept instructing me to try stuff on my computer, but I kept insisting nothing was working. I’ve got to say, her patience was impressive. After a while, I had to confess I wasn’t connected to the internet and was stuck with Windows 95! She quickly hung up, clearly annoyed. I doubt she’ll be ringing me again. Luckily, I had the time to waste, and honestly, I really do use Windows 10.4 yearsGot a call from a person saying they were with Microsoft.Microsoft4 yearsHe claimed to be calling from Microsoft.Microsoft4 yearsSaw a couple of comments about a day ago a few pages back with tips on how to avoid these scams. Curious if anyone actually took the advice? Seems like they just got ignored.4 yearsGot one of those calls again - as soon as I picked up, they just ended it. Such an annoying bother!4 yearsI've had loads of calls supposedly from Microsoft before, all from different numbers. Normally when I say I don’t own a Microsoft PC, they just hang up. Today, the lady claimed there was a Microsoft-registered computer under my name (probably an old one) and said it would be deregistered unless I did something she wanted. I didn’t stick around to find out what because it felt dodgy. It’s obvious these scammers ring from all over, using lots of different numbers. It’s pretty annoying and could be risky if someone actually fell for it.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft’s Tech support, mentioning there was an issue with my Windows PC.Microsoft4 yearsYesterday I got a call from 01614649732 claiming to be from Microsoft. I told them I wasn’t interested, and then the person started shouting at me. I asked who they thought they were talking to, and they replied with “you.” I told them they weren’t talking to me anymore, hung up, and have now blocked the number.Microsoft4 yearsFraudsters posing as Microsoft.Microsoft4 yearsToday I got a call from a woman with an Asian accent. After a bit of silence, she said there was an issue with my computer. I told her I don’t even own a computer and asked her not to ring me again, then she just ended the call.4 yearsToday some guy phoned me, said he was with Microsoft and wanted to prove it or something. Before that, I got loads of calls from different numbers, some blokes and ladies both, all saying they were from BT OpenReach. Pretty sure they're all linked. The numbers I got were 01430 860437 and 01489532602 - the latter called me two times!MicrosoftBT4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft tech support. They told me my account was being used for gambling and other stuff. Totally a fraud! I just put them on hold while I made a report about it :)Microsoft4 yearsBlocked now, definitely a scam.4 yearsToday, 29 March, I got a call from this number around 13:40. After I said “Hello,” there was a strange silence for a bit. Then a man with an Asian accent started talking about Microsoft. I didn’t waste any time and just ended the call, then blocked the number straight away.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from someone saying they were Microsoft, telling me my account was hacked. Definitely seemed like a scam - probably trying to get ransomware on my device. Watch out for this!Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from a woman speaking with what sounded like an Indian or Asian accent, claiming to be from Microsoft. She said something about my computer sending out corrupted files. Told her my IT guy handles all that stuff, but she insisted he wouldn't be able to fix it! Bit odd how she could judge someone she’s never met over the phone 😂. Said I wasn’t wasting my time arguing and hung up. Then the same number rang back three times in about ten minutes, without leaving any voicemail. Definitely a scam, no doubt about it!Microsoft4 yearsTotal rip-off call, don't waste your time!!!4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming they were with Microsoft tech support, saying there were urgent warnings I hadn’t dealt with. They told me to call this number later when I was free. Weird thing is, the call itself showed up on my phone as a completely different number, which this site doesn’t even recognise. Bit fishy if you ask me.Microsoft4 yearsApparently, it was someone claiming to be from Microsoft tech support. They suggested that I should hop onto Google and grab a download.MicrosoftGoogle4 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Indian accent who barely said a quiet "Hello" before just hanging up. I kept yelling "Hello?" into the phone multiple times, but he didn’t say much.4 yearsRing at 8:40 this mornin, picked up and could hear loads of voices in the back ground, sounded like a call centre or sumthin. Then they just cut off the line. Pretty sure it was some kinda scam again.4 yearsTotal con! They claimed to be from Microsoft saying there was a problem with my computer. Thing is, I haven’t even touched a computer in like five years. Absolute nonsense.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from 01614649732, someone saying they were from Microsoft. They rang me back twice more after I cut the call, asking why I ended it so quick. Quite fishy if you ask me.Microsoft4 yearsThis bloke was proper rude, got really mad when I told him to quit ringing me.4 yearsGood thing I let it ring out without picking up.4 yearsI got a call from a lady with an Oriental accent who claimed she was from Microsoft and knew my name. I was a bit suspicious and told her straight up that she should find a decent job instead of trying to trick people. After that, she just ended the call.Microsoft4 yearsThey said they were from Microsoft when I rang them back, but I just ended the call. Really hope they catch what they deserve. Would be good if the police could sort them out.Microsoft4 yearsOn Tuesday 29th March around midday, I got a call from a lady with an accent claiming she was from something like pentaline. She said there was an issue with my computer and asked if I even owned one. I quickly ended the call. She phoned back a couple more times but I didn’t pick up.Pentaline4 yearsYou're proper daft and a total pain in the arse.4 yearsAt around 8:45 this morning, I got a call from someone saying they were with Microsoft. I quickly ended the call before they could say much.Microsoft4 yearsI got a call from 01614649732 and the bloke said he was from Microsoft. When I didn't give him any info, he started getting really rude. Definitely some sort of scam, so best way is to just hang up and not bother with them.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from an Asian woman, but the connection was awful. She mentioned something about my computer being hacked.4 yearsGot a ring from someone claiming to be "Microsoft" saying my PC was under attack. I just hung up straight away.Microsoft4 yearsThis morning, around 8.25, I got a call from 01614649732 but when I answered, there was nothing but silence. I ended up hanging up straight away. This isn’t the first time they’ve called either - every time I pick up, no one says a word. Quite strange really.4 yearsGot a call from this number, sounded like a woman with an Asian accent, maybe Chinese or Filipino. She was saying something about being hacked or compromised, sounded pretty dodgy.ChinaPhilippines4 yearsGot a call when I was out, cheers for the heads up that it might be a scam!4 yearsGot a call from someone pretending to be Microsoft. Total scam, don’t fall for it!Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from a lady who sounded like she was just reading off a script, saying she was from Microsoft. I told her I wasn’t interested and ended the call, but she rang back asking why I had hung up on her. Ended up blocking the number.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from a woman with a really thick accent saying she was from Microsoft about my laptop! She somehow knew my name, even though she butchered how she said it. When I asked why she was ringing, she just hesitated and then suddenly ended the call!Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be with Microsoft, warning me that my computer was at risk of being hacked and offering 'help'. I played along just to waste his time and keep him from bugging others. When I finally challenged him, he just said I was ‘hopeless with computers’. These scam calls really need to be shut down.Microsoft4 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Asian accent who said his name was Kevin. Claimed he was ringing from Microsoft and asked if I was the main person who uses the computer. I simply said no. Then he asked if I used the computer at all, and again I said no. After that, he called me a liar and hung up. Looking at the info on your site, this sounds like a typical SCAM to me.KevinMicrosoft4 yearsTypical scam rubbish - blocked them! The call seems to originate from this company: https://www.magrathea-telecom.co.uk/. They offer guidance on how to handle scam calls, but honestly, I believe it ought to be their duty to screen their clients properly.co4 yearsYet another dodgy Amazon scam call! They claim £300 has been swiped from my card and that £1100 has been dispatched overseas. You'd reckon they'd have the wit to change it up a bit! I've lost count of how many times I've received the same spiel. It’s just so tiresome!Amazon4 yearsThey claimed to be from Microsoft and insisted that my computer had been compromised. I quickly pointed out that it sounded like a scam. They rang me back three times, and by the final call, the caller was quite irate with my refusal to cooperate. In the end, I made it clear that I wasn’t going to entertain their story.Microsoft4 yearsReceived a call from a Belfast number, but they didn't respond. Sounds fishy to me!Belfast4 yearsSomebody said they were calling from Microsoft, but I could barely make out what they were saying. Feels like a dodgy scam to me.Microsoft4 yearsTotal scam, phone went dead just as I picked up. I already told BT about this number a couple of days back.BT4 yearsGot a call from someone named Asoa claiming to be from Microsoft - definitely a scam!MicrosoftAsoa4 yearsI ended the call right away as soon as they picked up.4 yearsI received a call from a lady claiming to be from Microsoft, indicating there was an issue with my software licensing.

I quickly told her I wasn’t falling for it and to stop calling, then she just put the phone down.Microsoft4 yearsClearly one of those Microsoft fraud calls. They even ended up yelling at me!Microsoft4 yearsGot a total scam call from someone saying she was "Shirley" and working for Microsoft about issues with my PC.

It's so annoying, why do these scammy calls never seem to get blocked?Microsoft4 yearsLike everyone else said, had a bloke from India saying he was from Microsoft about some problem with my PC.

Before we could say anything more, the line just went dead.Mike4 yearsGot a call from some Asian bloke named Patrick saying he was from Microsoft, talking rubbish about my PC.

They never said who they were. After checking the reviews I gone ahead and blocked it, seemed dodgy.4 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to be from Microsoft, apparently based in India.
