7 yearsthis lady called me claiming there was something wrong with my computer. i said i wasn’t interested but she just kept going on and wouldn’t listen. i had to hang up. not long after she rang back right away, kept saying it wasn’t a scam. i put the phone down again, she calls back once more. this time my husband picked up and she started swearing at him. definitely some kind of scam.Jennifer7 yearsA woman called asking for my computer info, saying there were problems with my internet connection - pretty sure it was some sort of scam.7 yearsGot a ring from a Sophie, then she passed me over to a bloke called Simon. Both of em sounded way off from what I’d expect. They said they were from the place that manages my internet server or something. I played along for as long as I could, almost hit the 10-minute mark before I stopped engaging and just listened quietly while they started throwing insults at me. Pretty obvious it was a scam. Best to stay clear and block them straight away.SophieSimon7 yearsGot a call earlier claiming my internet was hacked or something, the same old nonsense. I figured i'd keep her on the line for as long as i felt like it, ended up chatting for nearly 8 minutes. Thought it might stop her from bugging other folks for a while before she finally ended the call.7 yearsJennifer's called me three times already this morning. She just won’t quit, it’s seriously getting on my nerves. Does anyone know how I can make her stop? This is driving me up the wall.Jennifer7 yearsGot a call from someone claiming to be working for an Indian call centre. When I explained I didn’t own any IT gear, she accused me of lying! The number had a Manchester area code, which just made it more confusing. Proper frustrating.Manchester7 yearsOn the third time Jennifer called, she got pretty mad after we told her we hadn’t asked for the call and that there was nothing wrong with our computer. It’s definitely one of those scam calls.Jennifer7 yearsthis lady called me, said her name was jennifer. kept pressing me to verify my email and address but never explained why she was ringing! yep, just another call from an indian call centre i bet!Jennifer7 yearsGot a call from someone named ‘Jennifer’ claiming to be from a ‘global web service department’ or something like that. I told her my internet was all good and hung up. She called back, saying it wasn’t about my internet but about my Windows PC. Problem is, I don’t even own a Windows computer, so I just ended the call once more. Total waste of time and probably dodgy too.Jennifer7 yearsthey want you to visit their website which is a total scam. do not open anything called quicksupport, it’ll control your computer and then start asking for cash. they say your pc has problems but it’s clear they don’t actually know anything about computers.QuickSupport7 yearsTotal scam, be careful!7 yearsI got a call from some call centre overseas claiming there was an internet issue causing my laptop to malfunction. They said they got an alert from my computer, which is totally rubbish. It was clearly a scam, so I just ended the call straight away.7 yearsNo message was left, so I’m pretty sure it’s just a scam.Submit Your Own Report (0161 745 6600)
