6 yearsI received one of those dodgy calls today, you know the kind! An automated voice was droning on about owing money to HMRC and threatening arrest if I didn't press 1. Absolute nonsense! I didn't stick around to hear more, just hung up and blocked the number straight away. It's infuriating how these scams keep going!HMRC7 yearsGot a call from BT Call Guardian but they never said who they were, so I figured it was probably a scam or some sort of call centre. I've blocked the number now.BT Call Guardian7 yearsI picked up and all I heard was silence at first, then a woman’s voice just said “bye” before hanging up. Definitely blocking that number now!7 yearsGot a call from a guy with an Indian accent, said he was from some windows company. He already had my full name and where I lived, which was pretty creepy. When I asked if his granny was alright with him doing this, he just ended the call.7 yearssome rude woman called me and asked if i was mrs smith i said maybe she was really pushy and sounded indian so i just ended the call straight away dont they know their own contacts?Smith7 yearsSome bloke with an Indian accent rang to say my computer license was out of date - whatever! I just told him what a load of rubbish it was and hung up on him. If they’re going to try and con you, you'd think they'd get their story straight first!7 yearsGot a call from someone with an Indian accent who said his name was Chris. He claimed my computer licence had expired and needed renewing. I told him to shove it, total scammer stuff.Chris7 yearsi answered with a quick “hi” and there was a pause before some robot voice said “bye”. pretty obvious they’re using an auto dialer to ring loads of people but can’t handle many live answers. blocked the number 1572 straight away.7 yearsi picked up and there was just quiet on the other end before they suddenly cut the call. seems like a scam to me! have already blocked the number and reported it.7 yearsI guessed right away it was some kind of scam, but I decided to humour this guy, who called himself "Chris" - sounded Asian too. I acted all worried and stuff. I think he got the message because then he told me to "get a life" before cutting me off!ChrisAsia7 yearsGot a call from a woman with an Asian accent telling me my computer license was out of date and that they were gonna disconnect me from it. Proper dodgy, sounded like a scam.7 yearsSome bloke rang up with a funny accent, asking for me by name. He said he was from the "computer licensing department". I just told him I wasn’t getting involved with any of his dodgy stuff and ended the call quick.7 yearsI got a call from some bloke with an Indian accent, saying he was “Chris” from Microsoft. He told me my laptop had been showing signs of fraud and that it was hacked. What a load of rubbish! He even went on about refunding cash I supposedly got scammed out of six years ago, but only if I did a bank transfer. Na, not falling for that again. They got me once before, but never twice. If anyone rings up saying they’re from Microsoft, chances are it’s a scam. The weirdest thing was, they actually had my old email address - the very one I used when I got ripped off years ago.ChrisMicrosoft7 yearsI got a call from a guy with an Indian accent saying there was an issue with my PC. Definitely a scam, watch out!7 yearssome bloke with a dodgy accent called up saying my laptop was compromised, then tried to sell me a fix and make some money out of it - watch out for these scams!Submit Your Own Report (0161 826 1621)
