8 yearsThey purport to be representatives from Microsoft, but in reality, they're nothing more than con artists! I implore you, do not share any personal details with them!Microsoft10 yearsHad a call from a scammer the other day, quite obvious what they were up to. Honestly, best thing to do is just hang up or simply say you’re aware of their tricks. No point wasting time with them.10 yearsSimilar to what others mentioned here, I got a call from a guy with an Asian accent asking for my mum. She wasn’t home though, she was working, and I was just chilling since I’m off work on holiday. Then he asked to talk to me instead and claimed there was some huge problem with my PC. I asked him how he could possibly tell that, and he said he’d accessed my computer via Remote Desktop. I told him that’s not possible unless my computer was turned on, and right after that he abruptly ended the call (or maybe I hit the hang-up button before he could lol).10 yearsIt was clearly a scam call. The bloke, who had an Asian accent, kept telling me there was an issue with my computer. I told him straight off he was trying to scam me and that I never pick up cold calls. Seriously, don’t fall for this rubbish!10 yearsThis was the third time I got a call from some bloke with an Asian accent, saying there was an issue with my computer. I told him I don't even own a PC and asked where they got my number from, making it clear they needed to remove me from their calling list. He ended the call straight away.10 yearsJust like the others, I kept him on the line for about ten minutes before I suddenly dropped the call in the middle of his spiel. Then he called me back and went on for another five minutes, all confused. The best bit was when I said, ‘Wait, are you saying you’re a virus?’ Hopefully I wasted enough of his time to stop him bothering someone else who might fall for it.10 yearsHad exactly the same annoyin experience. What a load of wankers, all of them. With all the complaints folks file, how come these muppets keep gettin away with it??10 yearsSomeone rang me yesterday, but luckily I saw all these reviews first. Now I always look up any strange numbers on here before bothering to answer.10 yearsI got a ring from this number around 1:37 PM today. The voice on the other end sounded foreign and started waffling on about my computer. I gave them a piece of my mind and told them to leave me alone. I'm not sure who it was, but I'm also registered with the Telephone Preference Service for both my landline and mobile. - Caller: 01614913070Telephone Preference Service10 yearsTotal scam alert. I enjoy messing with these scammers for fun! This one guy spoke really gently, saying he was from "Windows and Mac IT Support". I told him I don’t own a computer. Then he tried again, “What about a laptop?” I said no, I just use an iPad. “An iPad, really?” I replied, “Yeah, last time I had a PC, it got infected with a virus, so now I just use an iPad to get online” (lol). The guy went quiet, then just hung up. Honestly, I find these scammers pretty amusing!10 yearsThese folks are total con artists. Play along just enough to keep them hooked! When they ask for an email, write it like this: dot instead of . and at not @, like you’re avoiding a real link. For example, user dot name at example dot com. It really throws them off when you don’t head to their dodgy websites. Every minute you waste chatting with them might stop someone else from falling for it.10 yearsGot a call at 8.42 in the morning but I ignored it cause I was still in bed. Later on, I checked the number and it turned out to be a police scam. So yeah, I just blocked it straight away :)10 yearsThis bloke called me, claiming there was an issue with my PC. I told him there's nothing wrong, but he insisted it was something I couldn't notice. So, I played along for a bit and said it was a work laptop and only the IT department were allowed to mess with it. That seemed to shut him up pretty quickly, ended the chat right there.10 yearsThese people claimed to be 'UK IT support for Apple and Microsoft' and kept ringing me over and over (I usually just hang up cause I don’t know the number). But one day, I actually picked up. I asked a bunch of questions and you could tell they got really annoyed I wasn’t just agreeing with everything. They actually hung up on me! Honestly, someone should really do something about these scammers.UKAppleMicrosoft10 yearsTotal rip-off!10 yearsGot a call from some guy claiming he’s from the IT department about issues with my computer. Told him I don’t even own a computer. Then he asked if I had a tablet or something similar, I said no, pretty sure it was a scam. They just hung up after that.10 yearsSome dodgy people pretending to be from IT. They called me saying they're from the tech support team. What a load of rubbish!10 yearsTotal rip off, or as I like to call it, a complete s-c-a-m!10 yearsI got a call from someone trying to trick me about fake issues with my computer. Definitely a scam!10 yearsGot a call from some odd number and thought I'd ring back, but it wasn't even showing up on my phone. If it's one of those automated scam calls, just play along and tell them you've got computer issues. Don’t actually switch anything on, just keep saying yes to everything they ask. Eventually, they'll realise you’re not gullible and give up. It’s honestly quite satisfying wasting their time, knowing you’re stopping them from tricking someone else. I quite like it when these calls come through! The moment they realise you’re wise to their game, they usually won’t call again.10 yearsI tried ringing them back after not answering, but the number didn’t exist. Bloody annoying!10 yearsI got a call from someone claiming to offer computer support, but as soon as I said I wasn’t interested, they just ended the call. Tried ringing them back but the number didn’t show up as valid. Quite dodgy if you ask me!10 yearsSo I got a call while I was sat in my car, and they were all insisting I log into my computer. Absolutely ridiculous. No way am I letting them verify or claim they’re fixing issues on my PC. Just said cheers and hung up.10 yearsGot a call on 17/3/16 from someone claiming there’s an issue with my computer. When I tried to return the call, the number didn’t seem to exist. Looks like one of those scam calls.10 yearsnever heard of anyone i know with a 0161 number, so i just ignored the call. happy i checked the comments before thinking about calling back!10 yearsFrom what I've gathered on another platform, it appears this might have been an attempt at scamming folks through a computer fraud scheme.Submit Your Own Report (0161 491 3070)
