Claims to be associated with an outfit called World Web Server - Quick Support. It's yet another scam, yet they did include an address and phone number, along with details about the residents.

Received a call at 12:54 am. There was no actual ring, but it popped up as a missed call on my device. Seriously, who makes a call at that hour in the wee small hours?!

David appears to be struggling; it seems that nobody wishes to engage in conversation with him, myself included.

Just received a call from some chap claiming to be from the internet. Honestly, what a joke! I didn’t bother continuing the conversation and ended the call. This marks the third time this week I’ve had to put up with this nonsense.

I've been getting calls from this number multiple times each week. Whenever I let the answering machine pick up, they seem to hang up before leaving a message. The one time I actually answered, I was told there was an issue with my computer. Quite odd, if you ask me!

So, it turns out that Alexis has now decided to go by David. He’s requesting access to my computer under the guise of sorting out some supposed issues. What a complete con artist!

I received a rather peculiar phone call the other day, where a woman of Asian descent claimed my computer had been compromised. She said she was associated with Microsoft in Manchester and offered to rectify the issue at no cost. Quite amusing, isn’t it? Free repairs from Microsoft-sounds like an extraordinary promotion to me!

I've received two calls in a fortnight now - it's the same old script. The caller claims to be notifying me about some alarming issues with my computer. However, the woman they're attempting to reach hasn’t resided here in over fifteen years! When I mentioned that this might be a dodgy scam, the caller abruptly ended the conversation. Quite peculiar, wouldn’t you agree?

I encountered a lady from Asia on the phone earlier today, and frankly, I couldn't make out a single thing she was saying. In the end, I just hung up on her. The call happened around 2:40 in the afternoon on Tuesday, the 17th of October.

What a con! A chap named Alexis rang me up, insisting I start up my computer and grant him remote control to "sort it out." Just a bunch of nonsense!

Total con artist! A bloke pretending to be Alexis rang me up insisting I power up my computer and allow him remote access to “sort it out.” What a joke!

I've just received a rather dubious phone call from a so-called tech support outfit claiming that my device has been compromised. Quite concerning, really!
